Conus antoniomonteiroi is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Conidae, the cone snails and their allies. Like all species within the genus Conus, these snails are predatory and venomous. They are capable of "stinging" humans, therefore live ones should be handled carefully or not at all. Description
The size of the shell varies between 15 mm and 26 mm. Distribution
This species occurs in the Atlantic Ocean off the island of Sal, Cape Verde. References
