Rayed Cone Snails ~ Findings and Lucky Finds
Posted by Jody on January 24, 2013
Reblogged from Beach Treasures and Treasure Beaches:
The Rayed Cone snail (Conus radiatus) is a delightful find, but only if you find the empty seashell. If you find a live one, you would be well advised to leave this marine snail alone! A member of the Conidae family of venomous marine gastropod mollusks, the rayed cone snail is found in the waters of the Central Indo-Pacific seas.
~Enjoy~
