Description Acus maculatus.jpg |
English:
live
Oxymeris maculata
(synonyms :
Terebra maculata
,
Acus maculatus
)
Supposedly common, in my ten years in Hawaii this is the first live http://www.marinelifephotography.com/marine/mollusks/gastropods/augers/augers.htm auger shell I have seen. I caught a glimpse of it, barely exposed above the sand, in the receding shore break. After snapping the photo, I carefully replaced this little gastropod in the sand at the water's edge. I think it is a Terebra maculata , based on photos I could find online. Waialua, Oahu, Hawaii 13 March 2010 |
