They are capable of "stinging" humans, therefore live ones should be handled carefully or not at all. DescriptionThe size of the shell varies between 17 mm and 32 mm. The broader shell is angular at the shoulder. The color of the shell is dark brown with maculated white bands and rather continuous revolving lines of darker brown. The spire is convex and maculated with chestnut.[2] DistributionThis species occurs in the Pacific Ocean between Mexico and Colombia. References1. ^1 Bouchet, P. (2015). Conus orion.
