Conus leobrerai explained

Conus leobrerai is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Conidae, the cone snails and their allies.

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 35 mm. The shell body is dextrally coiled (right-handed).[1]

Distribution

This marine species occurs off the Philippines and the Solomon Islands, living along the seafloor, shores, tidal areas, marine coral reefs, and the deep seabed.
