Geographical distribution South coast of Santo Antão Island, Cabo Verde Archipelago. Conservation status in IUCN Red List Endangered. Remarks Prior to its introduction as a full species, it was referred to as Conus cuneolus form K in Röckel et al. (1980a) . Molecular data clearly confirm that it is a valid species endemic to Santo Antão Island, where it lives in the vicinity of Porto Novo harbor in rocky areas. In the tree, it is recovered as sister to A. curralensis and A. insulae sp. nov. from Santa Luzia Island.
