Cone found in St. Petersburg FL - stovetop - 11-14-2013
Please help
I love cones! I actually found one that was alive as well - Very careful not to touch it especially after it fired its harpoon at me. I wish I had taken a picture of it - this one here was the best looking one I found so I was not too upset that the other one was occupied. I found this one in St. Pete in about 1.5 feet of water.

Hello,
I think it's an Oliva sp. (maybe O. sayana)
Regards, Mark

Looks about right - it's a tad worn. Thanks!
