Conus angioiorum is a species of sea snail in the family Conidae (cone snails).[2]
Like all species within the genus Conus, C. angioiorum are predatory and venomous. They are capable of injecting humans with venom, and should thus be handled carefully or avoided.
Members of C. angioiorum vary between 26 and 45 mm in length. Their shells are white with patterns of rectangular brown patches arranged in lines.
