Carinodrillia

Carinodrillia buccooensis, from the Muséum national d'Histoire naturelle.


Belongs within: Pseudomelatomidae.

Carinodrillia is a genus of moderate-sized conoid gastropods known from the southwest coast of North America, as well as the Miocene of the Caribbean (Powell 1966).

Characters (from Powell 1966): Shell of moderate size, 14–35 mm, fusiform, with a tall spire of rather sagged turreted whorls, and a short body—whorl, rather quickly contracted to a moderately long to rather short slightly flexed weakly notched anterior canal. Protoconch of two depressed subcarinate smooth whorls. Adult sculpture of axial folds, spiral cords and threads; in the peripheral area, one or more of the overriding heavier spirals fuse over the axials to form low keels. Aperture narrow, with a thin outer lip, interrupted above by a deep narrow U-shaped sinus, restricted above by a moderate parietal callosity, at the termination of a prominent smooth subsutural fold. Colour uniformly whitish to brownish. Radula, a pair of simple slender curved non-barbed marginals.

Belongs within: Columbellidae.

Amphissa is a genus of dove shells found in the North Atlantic (Radwin 1978).

Characters (from Radwin 1978): Shell moderate to large (10–25 mm), and buccinoid; spire high and acute, whorls strongly convex, suture impressed; body whorl half shell length, aperture broadly open, apertural lip unthickened, non-denticulate within, columella straight, smooth, siphonal canal short; sculpture generally of numerous strong axial ribs crossed by spiral elements of varying strength; color off-white to brown with a straw-colored periostracum. Each radular row has a flat, subrectangular median tooth flanked on each side by an elongate, sigmoid, tricuspid lateral tooth.

The Pholidotomoidea as recognised by Bouchet et al. (2017) include early representatives of the Neogastropoda from the Late Cretaceous. This group is probably not monophyletic and likely includes ancestors of later neogastropods.

Rapaninae

Veined rapa whelk Rapana venosa, copyright Holger Krisp.


Belongs within: Muricidae.
Contains: Lepsiella, Nassa, Acanthina, Morula, Drupa, Thais.

The Rapaninae, including purples and drupes, are a group of muricid gastropods with thick and solid, often strongly sculptured shells that lack true varices, and a horny operculum with a lateral nucleus. Most species feed on barnacles, bivalves and other molluscs, often by boring a hole through the prey's shell (Wilson & Gillett 1971).

Thais

Thais clavigera, copyright R. Tanaka.


Belongs within: Rapaninae.

Thais, dog winkles, is a genus of predatory gastropods found on rocky shores and mangroves. Members of the genus have a very low-spired, basally unconstricted shell with a very broad aperture and an outer lip extended to form a curving channel at the adapical end of the aperture.

Coralliophilinae

Coralliophila neritoidea, copyright Philippe Bourjon.


Belongs within: Muricidae.

The Coralliophilinae, coral shells, are a group of gastropods that live in close association with cnidarians such as corals, attached to the surface or embedded within the coral skeleton. Members of this family lack a radula (Wilson & Gillett 1971) and have a protoconch with an ornament of hemispherical tubercles overlain and connected to each other by a wrinkled net of lamellae (Bandel & Dockery 2012). They are believed to feed on fluids or mucus from their cnidarian host. In the genus Magilus, the shell becomes uncoiled after the first few whorls and forms an irregular tube.
