Conus (Chelyconus) miovoeslauensis (Sacco, 1893 )
Descrizione e caratteristiche:
Sacco definì il Conus tauroventricosus var. miovoeslauensis
basandosi sulla figura del Conus ventricosus riportata da
Hoernes & Auinger (1879) nella Tav. 6 Fig.6.
Medium-sized shells, spire coeloconoid, low to medium in height; very variable in height; spire whorls channelled, weakly striate to striate; more or less deep groove in mid-whorl. Subsutural flexure of medium depth, moderately curved, strongly asymmetrical; last whorl elongate and fig-shaped, rarely strongly ventricose. Shoulder high, rounded, sides convex, position of maximum diameter about of the way below the shoulder; very weakly constricted at base; bearing weak spiral grooves on the abapical third; aperture straight, widening and slightly flared abapically; siphonal canal short; siphonal fasciole weakly developed; colour pattern seen under UV light consisting of spirally arranged small irregular dashes, partly underlain by very thin spirals. Broad, wide-spaced flammulae on shoulder and last spire whorl (2).
Lautoconus miovoeslauensis differs from L. magnolapugyensis (Sacco, 1893) as redescribed herein in its smaller size, narrower and striate spire whorls, the distinct spiral threads on the base and the overall distinctly more slender outline (2).
