Ces Cypraea marginalis marginalis me sont parvenues grâce à Ebay. Pas facile de la différencier de la Cypraea marginalis ''pseudocellata'' (Sch.& Schilder 1938) qui irait de Djibouti au Pakistan. Celles-ci proviennent de Somalie d' après les taxons qui les accompagnaient. Donc Cypraea marginalis marginalis est gibbeuse vu de dessous, ronde de dessus, la base est parsemée de points et les dents columellaires sont fines surtout au milieu, la couleur est très variable. Taille: 23/26 mm.
