Nacella Delesserti
''Nacella macquariensis'' is a species of true limpet, a marine gastropod mollusc in the family Nacellidae. It is found on the lower foreshore and in the shallow sub-littoral zone of certain islands in the southern Indian Ocean and Southern Ocean. Taxonomy ''Nacella macquariensis'' was named for Macquarie Island, the type location from which it was first described by Finlay in 1927. At that time there was confusion as to the correct nomenclature of the limpets found on the different sub-Arctic islands in the southern Indian Ocean. The limpet ''Nacella delesserti'' had been described by Hedley in 1916 and it was unclear whether this, and ''Nacella fuegiensis'' (Reeve, 1855) and ''Nacella illuminata'' (Gould, 1846) were in fact different species. Finlay determined that the following names should be accepted and the others discontinued: *''Nacella macquariensis'' – Macquarie Island *''Nacella strigilis'' (H. & J., 1841) – Auckland Island *''Nacella terroris'' (Filh ...

''Nacella concinna'' is a species of sea snail, a true limpet, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Nacellidae, one of the families of true limpets.Bouchet, P. (2014). Nacella polaris (Hombron & Jacquinot, 1841). Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species at http://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=713922 on 2015-01-26 Description The shell of ''Nacella concinna'' grows to about long with deep water specimens being rather smaller. It is an elongated ovate, moderately elevated cone with a low apex somewhat towards the anterior margin and angled in that direction. There are about 30 faint radial ribs and a series of fine concentric lines that indicate the annual growth rings. The exterior of the shell is varying shades of pale brown and grey and the interior is dark purplish-brown in deep water specimens but creamy-brown in those from shallow water. The mantle has a fringe of short tentacles.
