A stylized scientific illustration of a spiny marine gastropod shell with a long siphonal canal and an open aperture. Depicted is the external exoskeleton of a murex snail, likely Murex pecten (family Muricidae), within the phylum Mollusca. In malacology and marine zoology, this anatomical structure protects the soft body, deters predators via elongated spines, and accommodates the mantle cavity and operculum. The shell is a biomineralized structure composed largely of CaCO3 (calcium carbonate) located on the animal’s outer surface.
