Is Cypraea Ostergaardi Extinct or Still Alive?

[dave r]

Hi Robert, yes Erosaria ostergaardi is still around, if you have the money! I brought a specimen of this little Hawaiian endemic a couple of years ago now, it was in 'Fine' condition so not too expensive. They don't often come on to the market in the condition you see in Lorenz's book though, they are usually dead collected.
