Item description:
Title: Rarity: Conus bandanus HWASS, 1792 - 53mm (Cebu, Philippines)
For sale is an excellent, selected collector's case of the banded marble cone (Conus bandanus)
Item features:
Species: Conus bandanus (Hwass in Bruguiere, 1792)
Size: Impressive 53 mm
Locality: Cebu, Philippines
Condition: Naturally cleaned, superbly preserved texture, pronounced spire and high-contrast pattern.
Description and features:
Conus bandanus captivates with its characteristic pattern of deep-dark, almost black tentacular structures on a white to cream background. In comparison to the similar species Conus marmoreus, the banded marble cone is distinguished by two marked, irregular bands of finer pattern elements that span the shell horizontally.
The snail lives in tropical waters on reefs and sandy bottoms. At 53 mm, this shell is among the real highlights for any upscale mollusk and snail collection (malacology) as well as for exclusive maritime decorations.
