Conus (Lautoconus) mercator 36: Conoidea: Conidae - JackSullivan - 11-08-2018
From Mbour, Senegal. F3/GEM. From seller in Rome.
I have about 50 C. mercator & a similar number of C. cacao. The 2 endemic species from Senegal are different populations separated by 80 km & are different species to my eye. A French taxonomist has them listed in WoRMS as conspecific.
