Cypraea sp. help
Hi all,

Been trying to identify this (dead museum) specimen for the last hour or so with no success.

Any ideas? I thought some variety of C.onyx, but I can't see any with this blue uniform spot (rather than two bands). Location is around the Phillipines (best I can give for collection sorry) and size is approx 70mm.
