Lobatus goliath
''Lobatus goliath'', previously known as ''Eustrombus goliath'' and ''Strombus goliath'', common name the goliath conch, is a species of very large edible sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Strombidae, the true conchs. ''L. goliath'' is one of the largest mollusks of the Western Atlantic Ocean, and also one of the largest species among the Strombidae. It was once considered endemic to Brazil, but specimens have also been recently found in the waters of Barbados.〔〔Oxenford, H.A. A giant leap? Goliath conch, a Brazilian endemic species is found in Barbados. Journal of the Barbados Museum and Historical Society LVII: 192-201〕 Brazilian common names for this species include ''búzio de chapéu'' or ''búzio'' (in Ceará state), and ''búzio de aba'' or ''buzo'' in (Bahia state). ''L. goliath'' is considered closely related to the queen conch, ''Lobatus gigas''.
==Taxonomy==
This species was first named as ''Strombus goliath'' by German theologian Johann Samuel Schröter in 1805.〔 It is named after the biblical character Goliath, who is traditionally considered to have been of tremendous size.
The family Strombidae have undergone an extensive taxonomic revision recently〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Worldwide Conchology )〕 and many subgenera, including ''Eustrombus'', were elevated to genus level by some authors.〔 Petuch recombined this species as ''Titanostrombus goliath'' in 2004, and Landau ''et al.'' recombined it as ''Lobatus goliath'' in 2008.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Paleobiology Database )〕 The type locality of this species is Paracuru beach, north of Fortaleza, in Ceará state (Brazil).〔
