}}Umbilia hesitata, common name the umbilicate cowry or wonder cowry is a species of sea snail, a cowry, a marine gastropod mollusc in the family Cypraeidae, the cowries.[1]

Description

Distribution

This species is widely distributed from South Australia to southern Queensland, mainly in the seas along Victoria, New South Wales and along northern and eastern Tasmania.

Habitat

These cowries live in cold deep waters on the bottom sediment at about {{convert|100|-|200|m}} of depth, where they are usually found by fishing. They likely feed on bryozoa or sponges. In parts of Tasmania, the species occurs in much shallower water in the subtidal zone.

Subspecies

  • Umbilia hesitata beddomei Schlinder, 1930 (dwarf form)
  • Umbilia hesitata howelli Iredale, 1931 (albina form)
