Figure 5B View FIGURE 5

Pattern description. Yellow or orange fluorescence. Most notable area of fluorescence is the aperture, which fluoresces solidly. The fluorescence is strongest on the lips but is present across the entire aperture and interior siphonal canal surface. This is also apparent at the varices where the old outer lips were located during shell growth. There is also faint fluorescence on the body of the shell, but this is not clear enough to discern any pattern.
