Lambis robusta [Lambis robusta]
Description
Lambis robusta is a robust-looking spider conch that divers may encounter on sandy or rocky bottoms near reefs. Its thick, sculpted shell and extended spines give it a distinctive, armored appearance. Depending on the lighting and angle, the shell’s texture can look almost carved, making it a striking find for reef walkers and divers alike.
