Herpetopoma
''Herpetopoma'' is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod molluscs of the family Chilodontaidae.Bouchet, P. (2010). Herpetopoma Pilsbry, 1890. Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species at http://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=391155 on 25 March 2013 In the past, this genus was often treated as a subgenus of ''Euchelus''. However, this genus may prove to be a composite taxon, given the diversity of the shell forms. Description The shell has a turbinate-conic shape as in ''Euchelus''. The spire is elevated. The operculum is multispiral as in a typical ''Trochus'' and with more, less rapidly expanding whorls compared with ''Euchelus''. Species in this genus has typically two teeth, joined by a U-shaped notch, where the columella and the basal lips join. Species Species within the genus ''Herpetoma'' include: * '' Herpetopoma alacerrimum'' Dell, 1956 * '' Herpetopoma alarconi'' (Rehder, 1980) * '' Herpetopoma annectans'' (Tate, 1893) * '' Herpetopoma as ...
