Carinodrillia
''Carinodrillia'' is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Pseudomelatomidae Pseudomelatomidae is a family of predatory sea snails, marine gastropods included in the superfamily Conoidea (previously Conacea) and part of the Neogastropoda ( Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005). In 1995 Kantor elevated the subfamily Pseudomelatomina ..., the turrids and allies. Description For the species in which the spiral sculpture predominates and in which there is a tendency for the peripheral cord to form a carina, the name ''Carlnodrillia'' is proposed with ''Clathrodrillia halis'' Dall, as the type. This forms a very natural group containing a large number of species mostly unicolor, whitish or brownish. Species Species within the genus ''Carinodrillia'' include: * '' Carinodrillia adonis'' Pilsbry & Lowe, 1932 * '' Carinodrillia alboangulata'' (Smith E. A., 1882) * '' Carinodrillia apitoa'' Corea, 1934 * † '' Carinodrillia bella'' (Conrad, 1862) * '' Carinodrillia bili ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Carinodrillia Zooki
''Carinodrillia zooki'' is an extinct species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Pseudomelatomidae, the turrids and allies. Description The length of the shell attains 20.5 mm, its diameter 8.5 mm. (Original description) This species is very similar to † '' Carinodrillia fusiformis'' (Gabb, 1873), but differs as follows: the anterior canal is mich shorter. There is no cord at the lower edge of the sutural fasciole, above the supraperipheral cord. There are eleven somewhat protractive longitudinal folds on the body whorl, which are narrower than in ''C. fusilformis'' . In other respects, the two species seem to be substantially alike.

Carinodrillia Halis
''Carinodrillia halis'' is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Pseudomelatomidae. Description The length of the shell varies between 20 mm and 35 mm. (Original description) The elongated, acute shell is yellowish white. It contains polished, more brownish whorls in the protoconch and nine subsequent whorls. The suture is appressed with an angular thread in front of it, separated by an excavated wide fasciole,. The shell is microscopically spirally striated, from an acute shoulder surmounted by a single cord. The other spiral sculpture consists of (on the body whorl nine) widely separated subequal cords on the posterior one of which the suture is laid. These have the interspaces minutely striated and are not swollen when they pass over the ribs. The axial sculpture consists of (on the body whorl six) short, very prominent ribs with narrower interspaces, not continuous up the spire and horizontally angulated by the cord which forms the perip ...

Carinodrillia Braziliensis
''Carinodrillia braziliensis'' is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Pseudomelatomidae, the turrids. Description The length of the shell varies between 13 mm and 30 mm. The slender, fusiform shell is light brown with whitish nodules. It contains 11 whorls, slowly increasing. The two apical whorls are smooth, forming a large rounded protoconch. The following whorls are longitudinally obliquely costate. The ribs are most prominent at the middle of the whorls, where they are crossed by two spiral lines, which form transversely elongate nodules upon them. A wavy carina passes along the upper margin of the whorls, and a finer thread borders the lower suture. On the body whorl, the ribs are produced downwards below the middle but do not extend quite to the end of the rostrum. The spirals number about eighteen, and about seven of the upper ones are more or less nodulous on crossing the ribs; the rest below are finer and smooth. Between the nodulo ...
