Sea Snail
Sea snail is a common name for slow-moving marine gastropod molluscs, usually with visible external shells, such as whelk or abalone. They share the taxonomic class Gastropoda with slugs, which are distinguished from snails primarily by the absence of a visible shell. Definition Determining whether some gastropods should be called sea snails is not always easy. Some species that live in brackish water (such as certain neritids) can be listed as either freshwater snails or marine snails, and some species that live at or just above the high tide level (for example species in the genus '' Truncatella'') are sometimes considered to be sea snails and sometimes listed as land snails. Anatomy Sea snails are a very large group of animals and a very diverse one. Most snails that live in salt water respire using a gill or gills; a few species, though, have a lung, are intertidal, and are active only at low tide when they can move around in the air. These air-breathing species includ ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Nassa (gastropod)
''Nassa'' is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the subfamily Rapaninae of the family Muricidae, the murex snails or rock snails. Taxonomy The history of the name ''Nassa'' is rather confused, because the name was allocated twice: * ''Nassa'' Röding, 1798 for mainly muricid species with the type species : ''Nassa picta'' Röding, 1798 (= ''Nassa serta'' (Bruguière, 1798). * ''Nassa'' Lamarck, 1799 : established for the species ''Buccinum mutabile'' Linnaeus, 1758, which is now classified as a synonym of ''Nassarius'' Duméril, 1805 in the family Nassariidae. In the 19th and much of the 20th century, all species that were added to the genus ''Nassa'' were Nassa mud snails belonging to the family Nassariidae.
