Dear Philibert,
This is almost identical to the colour form of C. cavae in Hugues Flodrops message [#19851 ] which started this flood of photos showing different colour forms. However it has a valuable difference which helps link it to some of the other colour forms. If you look carefully there are diffuse orange-brown spots scattered over the mantle which link it to the C. cf. geminus colour form where all the background is orange-brown.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
