Colloniinae

Homalopoma sanguineum, copyright H. Zell.


Belongs within: Vetigastropoda.

The Colloniinae are a group of small gastropods characterised by a periumbilical cord (Monari et al. 1996).

Characters (from Monari et al. 1996): Phaneromphalous base with periumbilical cord, carina or ridge formed by small enlarged part of otherwise simple or slightly thickened peristome. Angulation on protoconch whorl and/or opisthocline lineation on teleoconch rarely appear. Operculum (where known) calcareous.
