Anatoma Crispata
''Anatoma crispata'' is a species of minute sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk or micromollusk in the family Anatomidae. Description The length of the shell varies between 1 mm and 4 mm. The globose, pearly white shell slopes toward the periphery. It is delicate, semitransparent, and glossy. The sculpture consists of numerous fine, curved, longitudinal ribs, interrupted by the slit fasciole, closer on the base, intersected by minute spiral striae in the interstices. The thin epidermis is caducous, and pale yellowish-brown. The spire is usually rather depressed, but variable. The four ; whorls are flattened above, rapidly enlarging. The slit is long and narrow, nearly central. The slit fasciole is deep, striated across. The edges are somewhat thick, sharp, and prominent . The rounded aperture is oblique. The peristome is continuous. The outer lip is thin. The inner lip is folded back on the columella. The umbilicus is deep, but exposing only the body whorl. ...

Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species at http://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=493001 on 2013-02-16 Description The length of the white shell reaches 2.5 mm. The shell has a depressedly globose shape. It is strongly sculptured, with a rather high scalar spire, exserted whorls, a very sharp and expressed carina, a minute tabulated apex, a strong and impressed suture, a tumid base, and a large pervious but half covered umbilicus. The radiating ribs are pretty strong, sharp, and equal above and below the canal. The whole surface is closely sharply, and regularly scored with fine threads, which are a little stronger (but not quite so sharp) on the base than above. The spire is high, scalar, each whorl rising and expanding above the suture. The apex is very small and tabulated. Th ...

Anatomidae
Anatomidae is a family of minute sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the clade Vetigastropoda (according to the taxonomy of the Gastropoda by Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005). Anatomidae was raised to the rank of subfamily to the rank of family in a study by Geiger & Jansen (2004). Bouchet & Rocroi placed it in the superfamily Scissurelloidea. This was disputed in 2008 by Yasunori Kano who does not believe that Anatomidae should be separated from Scissurellidae and actually states that it is the subfamily Anatominae. He suggests that this result was induced by contamination or mislabelling. This family has no subfamilies. Genera Genera within the family Anatomidae include: * ''Anatoma'' Woodward, 1859 * ''Sasakiconcha ''Sasakiconcha'' is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Anatomidae Anatomidae is a family of minute sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the clade Vetigastropoda Vetigastropoda is a major taxonomic group ...''

Anatoma Alta
''Anatoma alta'' is a species of minute sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk or micromollusk in the family Anatomidae. Description The shell grows to a length of 2.5 mm. The thin, white shell has a globose shape. It is transparent and strongly sculptured. It has a tumid base, a small umbilical chink. It has a short subscalar spire (on which the old canal slit forms the edge of the successive whorls), and a smallish somewhat prominent rounded tip. Its sculpture shows frequent, strongish, rounded, longitudinals. The curved riblets radiate out from the sutures. They are of much the same strength on the base as above. The spirals are located at about one-third of its height from the suture. The body whorl is somewhat feebly carinated by the old canal scar, which is depressed and finely scored across between the narrow slightly projecting edges of the lip. On the upper surface a few very obsolete spirals may be seen. The whole base is reticulated by spiral threads, which ...
