Austrodrillia Dimidiata
''Austrodrillia dimidiata'' is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Horaiclavidae. It was formerly included within the family Turridae. Description The length of the shell attains 7.9 mm, its diameter 2 mm. (Description by Joseph Verco) The solid, elongate-fusiform shell consists of whorls, including the blunt protoconch, which merges into the spire insensibly. The first whorl and a half are smooth and rather flat; the next is scarcely convex, and has at first distant invalid axial angulations, which gradually become more numerous and costulate. In the next whorl they become more distant again, and remain throughout the shell as feeble axial angulations which are just visible when looking at the shell from the apex. The spire-whorls are subconvex, subangulate just below the middle, and have the upper fourth somewhat adpressed just below the simple impressed suture. The aperture is oblique oblong-ovate. The siphonal canal is short, w ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Horaiclavidae
Horaiclavidae is a family of predatory sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the superfamily Conoidea. In 2011 this family was split off from the family Pseudomelatomidae (formerly the subfamily Crassispirinae McLean, 1971) by Bouchet P., Kantor Yu.I., Sysoev A. & Puillandre N. in their publication "A new operational classification of the Conoidea". It forms a clade together with the family Clavatulidae. It has many characters in common with the family Pseudomelatomidae, except the smaller shell with a low spire, the short siphonal canal and a weak or absent spiral sculpture. The radular formula is 1-0-0-0-1, but some species in this family lack a radula. Genera Genera within the family Horaiclavidae include: * '' Anacithara'' Hedley, 1922 * '' Anguloclavus'' Shuto, 1983 * '' Aoteadrillia'' Powell, 1942 * '' Asperosculptura'' Ardovini, Poppe & Tagaro, 2021 * '' Austrocarina'' Laseron, 1954 * '' Austrodrillia'' Hedley, 1918 * ''Buchema'' Corea, 1934 * '' Carinapex'' Dall, 1 ...
