Geographical distribution and bathymetry
Very widely distributed in the Indo-Pacific: in the Indian Ocean, Natal and S Madagascar to Gulf of Aden and Oman, and W Australia; in the Pacific Ocean, Japan to Taiwan and Queensland, Solomon
Islands, N New Zealand and Kermadec Islands, intertidal to a depths of 200 m. In New Caledonia, Coral Sea and Loyalty Ridge typically at depths between 200 and 400 m.
Remarks
Moderately small to moderately large (maximum shell length 75 mm) conical to broadly conical shell with a low to moderate spire. Protoconch multispiral of about 3.75 whorls ( Fig. 68L View Fig ). Serrations are absent; terminating cusp is present. Radular tooth ( Fig. 68M View Fig ) with a short barb and blade. The anterior section much longer than the posterior section of the tooth. Waist indistinct. Serrations absent. Terminating cusp and basal spur are present. The specimens from New Caledonia are consistent with the morphological concept of C. kermadecensis Iredale, 1913 . However, in the phylogeny ( Fig. 2 View Fig ; Supp. file 3) the specimens from New Caledonia appear mixed with specimens from the Solomon Islands (MNHN-IM-2007-30886 and MNHN-IM-2007-30888), S Madagascar (MNHN-IM-2009-15671) and Oman (KJ549938 = UF292826), all forming a compact clade. Hence, we hereby consider all individuals as representative of one single widespread species, C. lischkeanus , and not ascribed to any particular subspecies.
