HARPIDAE Harpa cabriti Madagascar. Tulear. From fishermen. 2015. 85.4 mm.
"THE FORMER VENTRICOSA, NOW CABRITI, BUT WANTS TO BE COSTATA
Indeed, older collectors will still use the name ventricosa. The change to cabriti came in the 1980’s and was a little violent for all of us.
This Harp is only common along the central east African coast, where fishermen occasionally take quantities. Among hundreds, one will find occasionally a piece developing as many ribs as a beautiful costata.
On the aesthetic level, such a shell is unbelievable beautiful as it combines the strong coloration of the cabriti with the magnificent multiple ribs of costata.
This combination puts the piece on a rarity level which is a multiple of costata and a big multiple of cabriti."
