Conasprella saecularis is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Conidae, the cone snails and their allies.

Contents

Like all species within the genus Conasprella, these cone snails are predatory and venomous. They are capable of "stinging" humans, therefore live ones should be handled carefully or not at all.

Description

The size of the shell varies between 17 mm and 40 mm.

Distribution

The marine species occurs in the Persian Gulf and in the Western Pacific.
