Ampullaria came in a variety of colours and forms. There is never an end to discovering just for this lowland species. Their form's name call it whatever . some photos were taken during the Sabah trip and across the border of Sarawak, some not far from kuching. red stripes   Was this the "red moon" the Japanese called?   elongated  oval shape  [ Isaac, walking to and fro...scratching head... ;D] |

My favouriter is the form from the first and second picture. Nice dark marron colour and the stripped peristome stands out so well on the marron background. Thanks Robert.

This is prime examples of seedling variation excels in nature. Imagine if these clones were man-selected for red, for striped peristome, for novel shades, and size, etc. I would prefer seeds of any of these parents over a red tc clone. The variations available in this species is tremendous. These will be some of the variables that can be overtaken when we begin to flower and breed this species. N. rafflesiana, N. bicalcarata and sp. Viking and so forth has these variations to offer. I have not seen a sp. Viking I didn't like, yet each plant is a seed original.
