Hunganhi Spider Conch [Lambis hunganhi]
Description
This spider conch is typically encountered on shallow reef slopes or sandy areas where it can blend in with the bottom. When divers find one, they’ll notice the dramatic, spined shell form and the animal’s slow, deliberate movement as it searches for food.
