Quadrate Pagoda Snail [Columbarium quadrativaricosum]
Description
This pagoda snail stands out for its more pronounced, boxy-looking shell sculpture, giving the ridges a distinctly angular feel. Divers might spot it attached to or resting on hard bottoms, where its textured shell contrasts with smoother rock or coral. If you slow down and look for the stepped, geometric pattern, it can be a rewarding find on a dive.
