Conasprella wendrosi is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Conidae, the cone snails and their allies.[1]
Like all species within the genus Conasprella, these cone snails are predatory and venomous. They are capable of "stinging" humans, therefore live ones should be handled carefully or not at all.
Description
The shell is conical in shape and has a length that varies between 10 and 17 mm. Like all species within the genus Conasprella, these cone snails are predatory and venomous. They are capable of stinging humans, which is why caution should be exercised or they should be avoided altogether when handling live snails. Шаблон:Expand section
Distribution
This species occurs in the Caribbean Sea near Aruba; so far, the only known location is the sandbank adjacent to a mangrove swamp off the coast of Barcadera.[2] In Aruba, Conasprella wendrosi is one of the three endemic species of snails, alongside Conus curassaviensis and Conus hieroglyphus.[3]
