Buccinum
''Buccinum'' is a genus of medium-sized sea snails, marine gastropod molluscs in the family Buccinidae, the true whelks.Gofas, S.; Bouchet, P. (2014). Buccinum Linnaeus, 1758. Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species at http://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=137701 on 2015-02-18 Snails in this genus are commonly called ''whelks'', a name shared with several related and unrelated species. The common whelk ''Buccinum undatum'' is the most common representative of the genus in the northern Atlantic Ocean. Description The shell is ovate or ovate-conical and elongated. The spire is moderate and pointed. The aperture is oval or oblong with a deep notch anteriorly and without a siphonal canal. The columella is plain, not flattened, swollen above, and often covered with a wide and flattened calcareous callosity, of more diaphanous substance. There sometimes exists a fold at the base of the columella. The outer lip is plain, quite thin, sometimes recurved, and f ...

''Buccinum undatum'', the common whelk or the waved buccinum, is a large, edible marine gastropod in the family Buccinidae, the "true whelks".Fraussen, K.; Gofas, S. (2014).

Buccinidae
The Buccinidae are a very large and diverse taxonomic family of large sea snails, often known as whelks or true whelks.Bouchet, P.; Gofas, S. (2010). Buccinidae.

Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species at http://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=149 on 2010-12-30 The family includes more than 1500 species. Taxonomy The family Busyconidae was for a time treated as a subfamily of Buccinidae called Busyconinae. Genera ''Antillophos'', ''Engoniophos'', ''Phos'', ''Nassaria'', '' Tomlinia'', '' Anentome'' and '' ''Clea'''' were treated within family Buccinidae, but they were moved to Nassariidae in 2016. Habitat The true whelks occur worldwide in all seas from tropical oceans to the cold seas of the Arctic Ocean and the Southern Ocean. They are found from the intertidal to the bathypelagic zones. Most prefer a solid bottom, but some inhabit sandy substrates. Description ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
