The textile cone is a venomous sea snail. It is a mollusc with a patterned shell, and it hunts other snails at night. It lives in warm seas around Africa, Australia and the Pacific, and it can sting people, so it is important to know it.1

Ihlala
Red Sea, tropical Indo-Pacific, Australia, New Zealand, Indian Ocean from eastern Africa to Hawaii, French Polynesia1

Ekhaya
It lives in estuaries, on rocky shores and in rockpools. During the day it is usually buried in sand, and it comes out to feed at night.1
Ubude
9 cm kuya ku-15 cm (3.5 in kuya ku-5.9 in)1

Sidlani?
It eats other snails, such as cones and cowries. It uses a radula, a microscopic harpoon-like tooth on a proboscis (a tube at the front of the body), to inject venom that kills its prey.1

Indlela yokusibona

  • Shell is yellowish brown with wavy brown lines.1
  • Triangular white spaces sit between the brown lines and form bands.1
  • The shell opening (aperture) is white.1
  • Typical adults have shells about 9 to 10 cm long, and the largest reach 15 cm.1

Amandla obuthi

Ukuhlaba

Ubuthi buphuma ngodosi.

Ubuthi baso benzani?

Its venom is a conotoxin, a mix of toxins injected through the harpoon-like radular tooth. The venom contains the neurotoxin RPRFamide, which attacks the nerves.1

Siyingozi kangakanani ebantwini?

Ingozi ebantwini: Kuyingozi kakhuluSingabulala umuntu ongatholi kwelashwa.

Several human deaths have been attributed to this species. A 2004 report linked about 30 human deaths to cone snails as a group. Live animals should be handled carefully or not at all, and anyone handling one without protecting exposed skin is at risk.1

Uma sihlaba

  • Ukubopha ngokucindezela nokuvimba ukunyakaza (pressure immobilisation): bopha ibhandeshi elinwebekayo eliqinile phezu kwenxeba bese ukhuphuka nesitho sonke, usiqinise nge-splint, futhi ugcine umuntu engashukumi nhlobo kuze kufike usizo.
  • Ingwane enezindandatho eziluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka noma umnenke we-cone ungamenza umuntu ayeke ukuphefumula esaphapheme: biza usizo futhi ulungele ukumphefumulela (rescue breaths) kuze kufike i-ambulensi ithathe izintambo.

Njalo shayela kuqala inombolo yezimo eziphuthumayo (112, 000, 911). Lokhu kuyiseluleko sosizo lokuqala esijwayelekile, akusona iseluleko sezokwelapha. Izisekelo zosizo lokuqala

Hlala uphephile

  • Ungalokothi uthinte, ubambe noma ugcone isilwane sasendle, ngisho noma sincane, futhi ngisho noma sibukeka silele noma sifile.
  • Sinike isikhala. Uma uhlangana naso, hlala uzolile, uhlehle kancane bese usiyeka sihambe ngendlela yaso.
  • Uma sikuhlaba: hlala uzolile, ungashukumi, shayela inombolo yezimo eziphuthumayo (112, 000, 911) noma uye esibhedlela ngokushesha. Khumbula ukuthi besibukeka kanjani, isithombe siyasiza.

Asikuzingeli wena. Sisebenzisa ubuthi baso ukuze sibambe ukudla noma ukuzivikela, futhi singancamela ukucasha. Okwengeziwe mayelana nokuhlala uphephile

Amaqiniso

1

Its shell pattern is made by natural cellular automata, and it resembles Wolfram's rule 30 pattern.1

2

The pigment cells that make the pattern sit in a narrow band along the shell's lip, and each cell responds to its neighbours.1

3

Its proboscis can reach any part of its own shell.1

4

In Australia it is most common in northern Queensland, but sightings are spreading south into New South Wales as ocean temperatures warm with climate change.1

5

Its larvae drift in the current for about 16 days before settling on the bottom of the sea.1

The female lays several hundred eggs at a time. They hatch after about 16 or 17 days, and the larvae float in the current for about 16 days before settling on the sea floor at about 1.5 mm long.1
