Scientific name: Cymatium femorale (Linnaeus, 1758) – in the German-speaking world known as the Winged Triton or Square Triton shell, in English as Angular Triton. Product details & quality Size: 55.0 mm (Rare dwarf size / Dwarf specimen! The regular average size is about 80–150 mm. Specimens around 55 mm in mature, perfect form are hardly available on the market). Quality: GEM (Absolute top condition. The distinctive wing-like knot ridges (varices) and the fragile, slightly curved siphonal canal are completely undamaged. No beach wear, outstanding natural luster). Special feature: Perfectly developed shell aperture (lip) despite the small dimensions. Origin & collecting data Region: Western Atlantic & Caribbean (main occurrences range from South Florida through the Bahamas and the West Indies to Brazil) Habitat: Shallow-water areas, sandy bottoms, mollusk banks and reef lagoons in depths from the tidal zone to about 50 meters. Biology & life habits The Winged Triton belongs to the family of triton shells (Cymatiidae / Ranellidae). It is one of the most visually striking representatives of its family: Shell characteristics: The spiral whorls form a distinctive, almost triangular “terrace” structure. Each whorl carries prominent axial ribs with thick knots, giving the aperture a jagged, wing-like appearance. The coloration typically ranges from creamy white, through yellow, to deep orange or brown tones. Lifestyle: The snail is predatory (carnivorous). With the help of its powerful radula (rasp tongue) it pries open the shells of other invertebrates. Its diet mainly includes bivalves (two-shelled mollusks) as well as echinoderms such as starfish and sea urchins. Color variability: The coloration is highly variable, ranging from whitish-gray to deep black, usually interspersed with attractive, spiral bands in brown, yellow or white.
