#2414 - Diloma aethiops - Spotted Top Snail
AKA scorched monodont, spotted black topshell, and in te reo Māori pūpū, pūpū-mai, or māihi. Synonyms and previous binomials include Diloma gaimardi, Diloma (Melagraphia) aethiops, Melagraphia aethiops, Monodonta lugubris and Trochus bernardi, cingulatus, gaimardi, lugubris, sulcatus, and aethiops.
A small Trochid endemic to New Zealand, most often found in rocky intertidal areas, especially on open rock surfaces where it is the only trochid found. Also seen in sheltered areas, semi-exposed coasts and in harbours or estuaries where it co-occurs with Diloma subrostrata on hard packed mud among empty bivalve shells.
Most Trochids are intertidal or shallow subtidal herbivores, found on hard surfaces.

Here to the final toss of Yu Sheng (魚生) for this Chinese New Year period. Sis bought it from her office’s canteen caterer at S$16 for the small portion. Instead of using raw fish for the Prosperity Toss, this one had top shell for a change. The lovely sweet sauce paired well with the julienned raw vegetables and of course the crunchy pillow crackers. It is also much cheaper if not better tasting than those bought at restaurants.
Bandai Korea Brings Tamagotchi Some With Meets Top Shell To The Character Licensing Fair 2019

Um, what is going on here? If you saw the images we just recently posted to our blog of the upcoming Tamagotchi Some device that Bandai Korea just announced than you may have noticed this. Bandai Korea was just at the Character Licensing Fair 2019 held in the Starfield COEX Mall in Korea where they showcased the upcoming device in every color and version for everyone to see.
Fans were drooling over the new faceplate inserts, which feature new designs for both the magical and fairy versions. What you may not have noticed is that the plastic top shell which is placed on top of the faceplate insert was for the Japanese Tamagotchi Meets. You can see in the image about that it does read “Tamagotchi Meets” above the buttons, and even the hearts on the fairy version, and stars on the magical version do not align with the new faceplate insert design. These are plastic top shells are clearly meant for the Tamagotchi Meets.
So why did Bandai Korea do this? Perhaps this is because the Tamagotchi Some did not go into production yet, and the tweaking of the faceplate insert would be enough for them to showcase the device at the event. These are most likely preproduction devices that Bandai Korea has on hand. No official word here, but it was very interesting to see this mismatch. Did anyone else notice?
