Australian False Limpet [Maoricrypta undescribed species]
Description
The Australian False Limpet, an undescribed species of Maoricrypta, is yet to be formally classified. It is a bivalve mollusk that inhabits the coastal waters of Australia. It is similar to its New Zealand counterpart in size and form, but certain morphological differences like shell shape and color patterns distinguish it from the latter. Further research and classification studies are still required for this species.
