Description
The length of the shell attains 43 mm.
Distribution
This marine species was found in deep water off the Solomon islands and New Caledonia.
gollark: We could probably manage decently high populations without removing vast quantities of environment with better management and application of existing technology, but nobody is doing this.
gollark: I mean, we chlorinate water now because of that sort of thing, you would have to get around all of that.
gollark: If you wanted to wipe out all humans for some reason, it would probably be quite effective to make a virus with reaaally delayed fatal effects which spreads well in the meantime.
gollark: Somewhat open, they aren't telling people all the production details I guess. Not sure if anyone was asking for that.
gollark: The Moderna one *is* effectively open but nobody has actually done anything with it.
