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 42 mm and 84 mm.
Distribution
This species occurs in the Indian ocean off Reunion island , Chagos and the Mascarene Basin.
gollark: No, I mean how do you use that to get intuition for number of solutions of some equations.
gollark: I've seen it with intersecting lines/planes(/hyperplanes), how does it work to interpret it as a transformation?
gollark: I don't think it tries to clarify the actual underlying foundational stuff much.
gollark: This is basically the last bit of a chapter containing various integration methods.
gollark: But even if they hadn't done it wrong, I still disagree with their decision to make you know this definition but not apply it in any way except when a question uses it to slightly obfuscate integrals.
