Conus
arntzenii (Martin, 1916)
Remarks: The species is
placed in genus Fusiconus by Tucker & Tenorio (2009). The shell
contains a single spiral groove dissecting the whorls before the body whorl
which is characteristic for that genus (Tucker & Tenokio 2009). Fusiconus
arntzenii is lacking a distinct scalariform outline of the spire that also
appears characetristic for the genus. We are uncertain about the base for the
assignment by Tucker & Tenorio (2009) of F. arntzenii as another
conid species described by Martin does confirm the generic characteristics of Fusiconus
(Tucker & Tenorio 2009: p. 85–86). We can not rule out that the authors
mixed up the two species (3).
