Weinkauff in Conch. Cab. (ed. Kiister), p. 245, considers this species as = Conus anemone, Lam., 

 in which I think he is mistaken. Without dwelling on the squatness of form and lowness of spire 

 in Conus jukesii, Reeve, and admitting how similar is the sculpture of the earlier whorls, it will be 

 observed that the spirals of the spire in Conus anemone become coarse, while in Conus jukesii they 

 continue as fine and delicate as at first. The embryonic apex, too, of Conus anemone is rather larger 

 and more exserted than in Reeve's species.
