Spiny Pagoda Snail [Columbarium spinicinctum]
Description
Divers may notice this snail as a small, tightly coiled shell with a “pagoda-like” shape and spiny-looking ridges. It often clings to rocky surfaces or hides in crevices, so you’ll usually spot it when you look closely at the nooks and edges of reef rock.
