Conus nigropunctatus Sowerby, 1858
Black-spotted cone,
31mm
This
appears to closely match some of the figures of Conus nigropunctatus
in gastropods.com.
In shape, sculpture and habitat,
they also resemble Conus catus and may be a variety of that species.
Specimens were found in reef pockets at low tide on the intertidal reef.
No living animal photo available.
