彎角骨螺(學名:Bolinus cornutus)是一種掠食性的海蝸牛。[1]它們廣泛分佈在非洲西岸,喜歡中等水深的海域。它們的殼很大,有刺及呈棒狀,一般都是呈淡褐色或黃褐色,有筆直及很長的水管溝。
特徵
[編輯]彎角骨螺棲息在中等水深的海域,喜歡碎石或岩質基質。它們是肉食性及掠食性的。[2]
彎角骨螺含有豐富的紫色染料,一般稱為骨螺紫。這種染料是鰓下腺的黏液,用來防禦及協助掠食的。[2][3]
彎角骨螺的殼很厚大,有刺,呈棒狀,體螺層很闊。殼可以長達20厘米。螺旋部很低,體螺層有6-7個螺層,每個螺層有2條長而中空的刺。水管溝筆直及長,其上也有短刺。殼呈淡黃色或黃褐色,在體螺層上有3道深色的螺旋形斑紋。殼孔呈卵狀及白色,唇邊、瓣殼質及滑層呈杏黃色。殼的外表面都很粗糙。[4][2][5][6]
