Conus arenatus Hwass in Bruguière, 1792

Rareté : Commun
Habitat : C'est une espèce d'eau peu profonde. Tous les specimens rencontrés étaient enterrés dans le sable le jour autour des herbiers dans moins d'un mètre d'eau, en bord de plage. Ils partagent l'habitat avec Conus tessulatus.
Discussion : La couleur et la forme des specimens sont très différents de ceux que j'ai pu récolter à Tahiti. Les points sont orangés et la forme du cône est plus épaulée que ceux de Tahiti.

Rarity : Common
Habitat : It is a shallow water specie. I found all the specimens burried in the sand around grass fields in less than one meter of water near the shore during the daytime. Often found along with Conus tessulatus.
Discussion : The color and shape are very different from the ones I found in Tahiti. The dots are clear orange colored and the shape of the specimens is more inflated than the ones from Tahiti.
