Cerithium
salebrosum Sowerby, 1855
22.0mm
Cerithium salebrosum
is abundant in sand flats, sand pockets and sandy bottom surge channels on lagoon,
pinnacle and seaward reefs around Kwajalein.
The unusual individual below was
photographed by Raphaël Forns at Ailuk Atoll. Despite this species' abundance
at Kwajalein, I don't think I saw any there that were not all white.
