Kurtziella Plumbea
''Kurtziella plumbea'' is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family (biology), family Mangeliidae. Description The length of the shell attains 10 mm. The small shell is yellowish, with on the body whorl a faint dark band in front of the suture and an obscure dark line at the periphery, with a dark flush on the siphonal canal. The shell containssix whorls, including a minute smooth protoconch followed by a minutely reticulated second whorl, and then by the adult Sculpture (mollusc), sculpture. The suture is distinct, slightly appressed, the anal fasciole occupying the space between it and an angular shoulder. The axial sculpture consists of (on the penultimate whorl, 15) narrow, sharp, arcuate ribs extending from the suture over the periphery, with wider interspaces. There are also minute incremental lines roughening the spirals. The spiral sculpture consists of numerous minutely channeled grooves with wider flattish interspaces (the latter sometimes w ...

Kurtziella Corallina
''Kurtziella corallina'' is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Mangeliidae. This species is considered by Tucker as a synonym of '' Kurtziella serga'' (Dall, W.H., 1881) Description (Original description) Shell.— High, narrow, with squarish lines. It has a biconical shape. It is ribbed and spiralled. It is of a frosted white colour and coral-like texture. The shell showe a scalar, blunt, but small-pointed spire, a smallish body whorl, a conical base, and a small, undefined snout. Sculpture : Longitudinals— there are about 13 ribs on each whorl. But they do not all exactly answer from whorl to whorl. They rise feebly just at the suture, but quickly increase in height, more slowly in breadth. In the sinus-area they are curved. From the shoulder they are straight, with only a slight curve on the base. They die out on the snout. They are narrow and rounded, and are parted by rounded furrows of three times their breadth. The whole surface is als ...
