Roboastra europaea from Spain

February 8, 2001
From: Alma Sánchez


Dear Dr. Rudman,
Here are two photos of Roboastra europaea García Gómez, 1985. This specimen was collected in March 2000 at the Bay of Algeciras (Strait of Gibraltar, southern Spain) at 26 m. depth. Size: 55mm., Place: La Cañonera reef.

By the way, I am sending some photos of a colour variation of this species in a separate message.
Best wishes,
Alma Sánchez
