They are capable of "stinging" humans, therefore live ones should be handled carefully or not at all. DescriptionThe size of the shell varies between 50 mm and 106 mm. The whorls of the spire are carinate, channeled and striate. They are tessellated with chestnut. The body whorl is pink-white, longitudinally clouded with chestnut or chocolate, often obscurely two-banded. There are several distant sulci towards the base.[2] DistributionThis marine species occurs in the Western Indian Ocean off Madagascar, Tanzania, Mauritius, Chagos and the Mascarene Basin.
