Fenimorea
''Fenimorea'' is a genus of carnivorous sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Drilliidae. Description (Original description) The shell is large. The whorls of the protoconch are well rounded and smooth. The whorls of the spire show strong, broad axial ribs that are retractively bent and reduced in the depressed groove below the summit and extend anteriorly to the fasciole on the base. The finer sculpture on the ribs and intercostal spaces consists of decidedly wavy incised spiral lines and fine incremental lines, which vary in strength. The combination of these two elements gives to the surface a peculiar effect, resembling the scales on some butterfly wings. This sculpture extends to the basal fasciole. The fasciole itself and the area immediately posterior to it, as well as the rest of the columella, are marked by spiral threads. The aperture is moderately long and broad and strongly channeled anteriorly. The basal sinus is deep and reflected at the edge wit ...

Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species at http://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=762250 on 2016-07-26 The subspecies ''Fenimorea moseri brunnescens'' Rehder, 1943 is accepted as ''Fenimorea moseri'' (Dall, 1889) Description The length of the shell varies between 20 mm and 35 mm; its diameter 10 mm. (Original description) The color of the shell varies from a rich rose color, with paler bands on the base, fasciole, etc., to yellowish white. The protoconch contains two whorls, followed by nine or ten subsequent whorls. The spiral sculpture consists of numerous very shallow grooves with wider flat interspaces. The grooves are cross-striated by close-set fine elevated incremental lines. This sculpture is very easily eroded and sometimes nearly ...

Fenimorea Janetae
''Fenimorea janetae'', common name Janet's turrid, is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Drilliidae. Description The length of an adult shell varies between 25 mm and 40 mm; its diameter 14.3 mm. (Original description) The shell is rather large, with the posterior groove and an area about as wide as this groove, anterior to the groove, on the axial ribs, white. This is followed by a broad zone of chestnut-brown occupying about half the whorls between the summit and suture. This zone terminates a little below the periphery. Anterior to this is a fainter thread of brown and a little paler brown area in the groove just posterior to the fasciole. In addition to this, there are, in the lighter bands in the intercostal spaces, indications of pale brown markings. The broad brown band becomes enfeebled on the last portion of the body whorl. The interior of the aperture is bluish white with the dark band shining partly through this, and th ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
