Author : David Touitou, Pictures : Laurent Kbaïer


 

During this dive,19th august 2007 with my team mate Laurent Kbaïer (http://www.bluesun.fr), we manage to find a live Cypraea spurca Gmelin, 1791. The specimen was found under a rock at 17 meters at Hyères (Presqu'île de Giens, France). Laurent made amazing macro photos of the shell wich shows an extraordinary colored mantle !! I let you enjoy the pictures...
