Product Details

12-3/4 inches long and 6-1/2 inches wide Pacific Triton's Trumpet seashell (with a small chip on the lip area - see photo), Charonia tritonis, also called the Giant Triton.( Review all Photo). This Pacific Triton's Trumpet shell, Giant Triton, is predominately rich brown in color with an orange mouth opening lined with vertical brown stripes adorning the upper lip of the shell. Charonia tritonis, common name the Triton's trumpet or the giant triton, is a species of very large sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusc in the family Charoniidae, the tritons. Reaching up to two feet in shell length this is one of the biggest mollusks in the coral reef. The giant triton is an active predator and is known to aggressively chase its prey, which it detects with its excellent sense of smell. Though the chase may seem slow to human observers, the giant triton is known for relatively high speeds, especially for a snail. It prefers to eat other snails and sea stars, most notably the crown-of-thorns starfish.

Carefully review all photos.You are buying the beautiful seashell in the photos. This is a real seashell (NOT a replica). It will have natural imperfections from living in the oceans and aging.
