They are capable of "stinging" humans, therefore live ones should be handled carefully or not at all. DescriptionThe size of the shell varies between 13 mm and 50 mm. The smooth shell is striate towards the base. Its color is rosy white, with orange-rose clouds and distant revolving series of spots.[2] DistributionThis species occurs in the Indian Ocean off the Mascarenes; also off Timor, Flores and New Guinea.
