Description
The shell of Eoconus sauridens is relatively large, with a length that can reach up to 65 mm. The shell is characterized by its conical shape and intricate patterns. The surface of the shell is adorned with fine spiral ridges and grooves, which add to its intricate appearance. The coloration of the shell, as inferred from fossil records, likely featured a combination of light and dark hues that provided camouflage against the seabed.It lived in the eocene-aged geological strata. It has been found in parts of the United States as well as South America.
