TWO SIMILAR CONUS - Carlos Galan - 09-18-2011

Hello, there are two Conus purchased in Spain and probably recolecten in Philippines. ¿Does anybody know the specie? ¿Are the same specie?

Thanks.

The first is Conus virgo and the second is Conus quercinus. Yes, they probably are from the Philippines.
