  1. I'm so intrigued by the front parts of its "house". Such precise craftwork! Posted 4 years ago
    1. Yes it does look very neatly structured, certainly as opposed to the roughly constructed rear part of the case and this actually seems to be a typical pattern in construction technique, making the cases recognizable as this species. Nature never ceases to surprise and amaze :o) Posted 4 years ago
    2. I agree with Ferdy -- such an intriguing case! I love it! Posted 4 years ago
