Description Live specimens and shells of Mirabilistrombus
listeri (Gray, 1852) were collected from the by-catch
of the shrimp trawlers operating off Visakhapatnam
(17° 42' N, 83° 15' E) in the Bay of Bengal. The live
specimens were maintained in the marine hatchery
in 1 tonne capacity fiberglass tanks containing
seawater of 32-35 ‰ salinity. The morphometric
measurements and the behavior of the conch was
recorded. The identification of the species was
based on earlier description by Abbott (1960) and
Subba Rao (2003).
