Buchema
''Buchema'' is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Horaiclavidae. This genus was previously placed in the subfamily Crassispirinae, within the Turridae. Description (Description by W.H. Dall as a subgenus of ''Carinodrillia'') This genus consists of moderate-sized, rather heavy shelled mollusks which resemble the members of the genus '' Carinodrillia''. They differ from ''Carinodrillia'' in having the whorls of the protoconch without a median carina. Here they are rounded, the early whorls smooth, succeeded by a finely axially, closely lirate portion that passes into an axially slender ribbed part, which in turn passes into the postnuclear sculpture. The sculpture of the postnuclear whorls consists of strong axial ribs which weaken on the posterior sinus. The axial ribs and intercostal spaces are crossed by rather heavy spiral cords, finer spiral lirations between the heavier cords, and hairlike incremental lines. The combination of these last two ele ...

Buchema Melanacme
''Buchema melanacme'' is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Horaiclavidae. It was formerly included within the family Turridae.Bouchet, P. (2015). Buchema melanacme (E. A. Smith, 1882). In: MolluscaBase (2015). Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species at http://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=558172 on 2017-01-05 Description The length of the elongate-ovate, black shell attains 8 mm, its diameter 3 mm. The shell contains 7½ whorls of which 1½ in the protoconch. The upper half of each whorl is concave, and not crossed by the ribs, which are situated below. Of the three spiral lirations which connect the ribs, the upper one is rather more slender than the others. There is a slight thickening just below the suture.. The body whorl contains 15 spiral ribs. The small aperture is red and measures ⅓ of the total length of the shell. The sinus is small and is slightly situated below the suture. The siphonal canal ...

Buchema Interstrigata
''Buchema interstrigata'' is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Horaiclavidae. Description The length of the acuminate pyramidal shell varies between 7 mm and 12 mm. The shell consists of 7½ whorls of which 1½ in the protoconch.
