Conus moreleti 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 25 mm and 61 mm. The narrow shell contains a convexly depressed, tuberculated spire. The body whorl is striate below. Its color is yellowish olivaceous, indistinctly white-banded in the middle. The tubercles, and a band below the shoulder is white. The base of the shell and the aperture is violaceous.[2]
Distribution
This species occurs in the Indian Ocean off the Mascarene Basin and off Eastern Africa; off French Polynesia and Hawaii; off Australia (Northern Territory, Queensland).
