Genus
Genus ( plural genera ) is a taxonomic rank used in the biological classification of extant taxon, living and fossil organisms as well as Virus classification#ICTV classification, viruses. In the hierarchy of biological classification, genus comes above species and below family (taxonomy), family. In binomial nomenclature, the genus name forms the first part of the binomial species name for each species within the genus. :E.g. ''Panthera leo'' (lion) and ''Panthera onca'' (jaguar) are two species within the genus ''Panthera''. ''Panthera'' is a genus within the family Felidae. The composition of a genus is determined by taxonomy (biology), taxonomists. The standards for genus classification are not strictly codified, so different authorities often produce different classifications for genera. There are some general practices used, however, including the idea that a newly defined genus should fulfill these three criteria to be descriptively useful: # monophyly – all descendants ...

''Euchelus guttarosea'' is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Chilodontidae. Description The height of the small shell attains 6 mm. Its color is all white. Or the upper surface of the whorls show very small distinct rose-red dots sparsely distributed over the white ground color on the raised nodules of the sculpture. The spire contains five or more inflated strongly sculptured whorls, and a smooth nucleus.
