Lyria lyraeformis – Exceptional gigantic size (141.8mm!) and exceptional colour and pattern!

Caught by local fisherman using lobster net over 35m deep. A fine scar lower dorsum. Lip for this species is never perfect. (normally filed by sellers) This is considered ok, just minor chips on lip and canal. Biggest specimen I have seen ever sold online in my 32 years of collecting so far! The WRS recorded in year 2008 was 147.4mm, so this specimen is close!
