Jujubinus maldivensis

Jujubinus maldivensis is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Trochidae, the top snails.

[1][2] Adult shells typically reach a height of 12.5 mm.

Some individuals closely resemble the typical form, while others, though typical in coloration, may display white flames on a purple background or a uniform green shade with yellow undertones, with or without the spotted band at the base of each whorl.

Under magnification, fine, elevated spiral striae (1 to 3 per interstice) can be observed between the rows of granules, crossed by oblique, slightly lamellose striae.

[3] This marine species occurs off the Maldives, Indo-Malaysia and in the Central and East Indian Ocean.
