Guraleus Granulossisimus
''Guraleus'' is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Mangeliidae. Description The thin shell is fusiform or subcylindrical. The colour ranges from uniform buff, with or without chocolate spiral lines or bands, to entire chocolate. The protoconch consists of two or three smooth helicoid whorls. Fasciole don't interrupt the sculpture, and are scarcely indicated by the curvature of growth lines. Sculpture :—The radials vary from bold spaced ribs projecting at the shoulder to fine close riblets. The entire shell, except the protoconch, is overrun with fine, close, beaded or unbeaded threads. The aperture measures about half the length of the shell, with or without armature. The outer lip is slightly inflected. The sinus is subsutural, deeply rounded. The siphonal canal is short and open. Distribution This genus of marine species occurs off Sumatra (Indonesia) and Australia (New South Wales, Queensland, South Australia, Tasmania, Victoria, Western Austr ...

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 ...

World Register Of Marine Species
The World Register of Marine Species (WoRMS) is a taxonomic database that aims to provide an authoritative and comprehensive list of names of marine organisms. Content The content of the registry is edited and maintained by scientific specialists on each group of organism. These taxonomists control the quality of the information, which is gathered from the primary scientific literature as well as from some external regional and taxon-specific databases. WoRMS maintains valid names of all marine organisms, but also provides information on synonyms and invalid names. It is an ongoing task to maintain the registry, since new species are constantly being discovered and described by scientists; in addition, the nomenclature and taxonomy of existing species is often corrected or changed as new research is constantly being published. Subsets of WoRMS content are made available, and can have separate badging and their own home/launch pages, as "subregisters", such as the ''World List of ...
