Shell Description
Adult shells can typically measure between 7.0" (18 cm) to 12.0" (30 cm) in length. The shell exhibits a robust, biconic form with a high spire and a flared outer lip adorned with six to nine finger-like projections or "spines," which contribute to its "spider-like" appearance.
The exterior of the shell ranges from creamy white to light brown, often featuring zigzag or blotchy brown patterns. The aperture (shell opening) is typically pearly pink with orange or yellow tints, adding to its aesthetic appeal. 
Lambis lambis is widespread throughout the Indo-West Pacific, including regions such as East Africa, the Red Sea, India, Southeast Asia, northern Australia, and various Pacific islands.
