Eucithara cf angela (Adams & Angas, 1864)
12.95mm

This looks somewhat like the Eucithara angela in gastropods.com. Many sand dwelling species living in the white coral sand of atolls tend to have whiter or lighter shells than the same species from areas with darker sand. We have seen just a few of these out crawling on sand during the day on the sandy reef between Bigej and Meck Islands in about 8m of water.
