Buccinum golikovi [Buccinum golikovi]
Description
This deep-water sea snail is the kind of slow-moving bottom dweller divers might spot while scanning sandy or muddy substrates. With its sturdy, spiraled shell, it often looks like a small, weathered “tool” of the seafloor—quietly grazing and scavenging in the dark.
