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 ...

''Ransoniella'' is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the subfamily Erroneinae of the family Cypraeidae, the cowries. Most species in this genus have become a synonym of species in ''Notadusta'' Schilder, 1935 Taxonomy The taxonomy of ''Ransoniella'' proposed by Dolin (2007) is controversial. However, as it has not been refuted in print, it was followed here in WoRMS. Ideally, Dolin's species will have to be tested by molecular characters. Species The following species within the genus ''Ransoniella'' have become synonym with '' Notadusta punctata'' ( Linnaeus, 1771) : * † '' Ransonia antistita'' Dolin & Lozouet, 2004 * '' Ransoniella coseli'' (Dolin & Lozouet, 2004) * † ''Ransoniella faviai'' (Dolin & Lozouet, 2004) † * † '' Ransoniella ferruginosa'' (Dolin & Lozouet, 2004) † * † '' Ransoniella girardae'' (Dolin & Lozouet, 2004) † * † '' Ransoniella gofasi'' (Dolin & Lozouet, 2004) † * † '' Ransoniella inhereditaria'' (Dolin & Loz ...

Sea Snail
Sea snail is a common name for slow-moving marine gastropod molluscs, usually with visible external shells, such as whelk or abalone. They share the taxonomic class Gastropoda with slugs, which are distinguished from snails primarily by the absence of a visible shell. Definition Determining whether some gastropods should be called sea snails is not always easy. Some species that live in brackish water (such as certain neritids) can be listed as either freshwater snails or marine snails, and some species that live at or just above the high tide level (for example species in the genus '' Truncatella'') are sometimes considered to be sea snails and sometimes listed as land snails. Anatomy Sea snails are a very large group of animals and a very diverse one. Most snails that live in salt water respire using a gill or gills; a few species, though, have a lung, are intertidal, and are active only at low tide when they can move around in the air. These air-breathing species includ ...
