Conus clarus, common name the glossy cone, 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 Conus, these snails are predatory and venomous. They are capable of "stinging" humans, therefore live ones should be handled carefully or not at all.

Description

The size of the shell varies between 22 mm and 54 mm. The shell is abbreviately turbinate and sulcate towards the base. Its color is rosy white. The spire is depressed-conical, striate. The angle of the body whorl is carinated. The aperture is light rosaceous.[2]

Distribution

This marine species occurs from Southeast Africa to Australia (South Australia, Tasmania, Victoria and Western Australia).
