Q-Man,
Yes, Conus kuroharai (Habe, 1965) is now accepted as a species. When Wall's
book was written in the mid-seventies, few specimens of C. kuroharai were
known and many of these were dead taken. Since then, many live specimens
have been found in the Philippines.
Conus duplicatus is now generally considered a synonym of C. australis
Holton, 1802.
