A beautiful, large collector-quality specimen of Agaronia java, a species described in 2019. This attractive olive shell displays a striking combination of golden-yellow, warm orange, and creamy ivory coloration with delicate grayish-brown markings across its polished body.
The shell features an elongated, slender profile with a distinctive elevated spire, well-defined sutures, and a smooth, glossy surface. Its rich golden-orange coloration becomes especially prominent toward the anterior end, contrasting beautifully with the pale patterned upper body. The aperture is smooth and glossy, with a creamy ivory interior and attractive yellow-orange coloration along the columellar area.
Measuring an impressive 52.72 mm, this is a particularly attractive specimen with excellent overall presentation and strong collector appeal.
Collected by a local fisherman while diving at depths of 3–5 meters near Banyuwangi, East Java, Indonesia, in July 2026.
