This study was aimed to compile the information on the diversity and distribution of Indian cone shells (Family Conidae) from the materials present in National Zoological Collections (NZC) of Zoological Survey of India (ZSI). About 93 species were known from India and a total of 76 species are reported in this study and it revealed that the species distribution is more on the Andaman and Nicobar islands (37), 12 species from Andhra Pradesh, 32 species from Tamil Nadu, 8 species each from Puducherry, Maharashtra and Lakshadweep, 5 species from Kerala and Gujarat respectively and one species each of Odisha and Karnataka. Beside above, systematic taxonomic account, nomenclature, synonymy, distinctive features and their distribution along with their current status are also discussed.Keywords
