Conus sponsalis
This 10mm cone is one of three tiny cones taken in coral rubble off of Kauai.  I thought them to be C. abbreviatus juveniles due to the brown dots and bluish color but I posted them on another site and they said it was C. sponsalis.  It doesn't look like sponsalis I've seen online.

This specimen is the only one I could get clean enough to see the markings well.
