Colus
''Colus'' (lat. ''colus'', distaff) is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Colidae, the true whelks and the like. Evolution ''Colus'' is related to the New Zealand genus ''Austrofusus''. Taxonomy The name ''Colus'' is not available from Humphrey, 1797 (published in a work placed on the Official Index). Most recent authors use the name ''Colus'' for the genus instead of ''Sipho'' . Iredale (1919b) mentioned: "This name cannot be defended by anyone" and was rejected by the ICZN (Op. 21). Also ''Tritonofusus'' cannot be used because of the rules of priority. Species Species within the genus ''Colus'' include: * '' Colus aurariae'' Fraussen, Rosado, Afonso & Monteiro, 2009 * '' Colus azygosorius'' Tiba, 1980 * '' Colus barbarinus'' Dall, 1919 * '' Colus bukini'' Kantor, 1984 * '' Colus gracilis'' (da Costa, 1778) * '' Colus griseus'' (Dall, 1889) * '' Colus halimeris'' (Dall, 1919) * '' Colus holboelli'' ( Møller, 1842) * '' Colus islandicus'' ( ...
