$300.00

Impressive Fasciolaria riverai personally collected by me from the deep waters of the Tortuga Terrace in the Dry Tortugas while commercial lobster fishing aboard my vessel, F/V AVA PILAR.

 

This species was recently described by Petuch & Berschauer in 2026 and was named in my honor, making this specimen a particularly significant example tied directly to the discovery and documentation of the species.
