Image of Amphissa H. Adams & A. Adams 1853

Description:
In this photo the shape of the aperture, the siphonal notch, and the uncalcified operculum can be seen. Trawled from 120 m depth in San Juan Channel. According to the criteria in Pernet (2007) I would conclude that this individual is sexually mature due to the thick outer lip of the aperture.
