This shell of the hooked ark (Cucullaea labiata), described by Lightfoot in 1786, comes from the island of Masbate in the Indo-Pacific. An extant member of the Cucullaeidae family, this mollusk species lives burrowed in sandy-muddy coastal soils – its habitat extends from India through Japan to Australia.
