Conus nucleus espèce demollusques gastéropodes marins de lafamille desConidae .
Comme toutes les espèces du genreConus prédateurs etvenimeux . Ils sont capables de « piquer » les humains et doivent donc être manipulés avec précaution, voire pas du tout.
La taille de la coquille varie entre16 mm et25 mm . La coquille présente de fines stries tournantes. Sa couleur est brun-orange, avec une bande blanche irrégulière, et des taches. L'ouverture est violacée[ 1]
Cette espèce marine est présente au large desîles Mascareignes , deMadagascar , desPhilippines , desMaldives , de laThaïlande , deGuam , desîles Marshall et de l'Australie (Territoire du Nord ,Queensland etAustralie-Occidentale ).
Selon l'analyse de l'UICN réalisée en 2011 pour la définition du niveau de risque d'extinction, cette espèce se trouve dans l'ouest de l'océan Indien : notamment sur les côtes de la Réunion, desMaldives , desSeychelles , deMadagascar , également au nord-ouest de l'Australie et à l'ouest de laThaïlande : on la trouve également dans l'océan Pacifique sur les côtes d'Okinawa , deGuam , desPhilippines et des îles Marshall. Également dans lesîles Salomon et enNouvelle-Calédonie . Cette espèce n'est pas commune dans certaines parties de son aire de répartition. Cette espèce est présente dans une vaste aire de répartition et les indicateurs de marché suggèrent une abondance raisonnable à l'état sauvage. Elle n'est donc pas considérée comme étanten danger . Cette espèce est classée dans la catégorie "préoccupation mineure "[ 2]
L'espèceConus nucleus a été décrite pour la première fois en 1848 par l'éditeur etnaturaliste britannique Lovell Augustus Reeve dans « Conchologia Iconica, or, illustrations of the shells of molluscous animals »[ 3] , [ 4]
