Conus mcbridei Lorenz, 2005
McBride's cone,
12mm
Conus
mcbridei is a
very small recently named species that is locally common. We see them on the
seaward reef front, usually on the flat above the steep dropoff at depths of
3 to 13m. The shell and animal coloration are similar to Conus
sponsalis, suggesting that the two species are very closely related.
