Sinezona Geigeri
''Sinezona'' is a genus of minute sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks or micromollusks in the family Scissurellidae, the little slit shells. Description The shell has turbinate or depressed turbinate form. The anal fissure is closed, forming a foramen in the outer wall of the aperture. The slit fasciole is shorter, not over 1½ whorls in length. ''Sinezona'' is a ''Scissurella'' in which the anal slit becomes closed in the adult, and transformed into an oblong perforation like one of the holes of a '' Haliotis''. Distribution This marine genus occurs worldwide. Species Species in the genus ''Sinezona'' include: * '' Sinezona bandeli'' Marshall, 2002 * '' Sinezona beddomei'' (Petterd, 1884) * '' Sinezona brevis'' (Hedley, 1904) * '' Sinezona brucei'' Geiger, 2012 * '' Sinezona calumnior'' Geiger, 2012 * '' Sinezona carolarum'' Geiger & McLean, 2010 * '' Sinezona chilensis'' Geiger, 2012 * ''Sinezona cingulata'' (O.G.

He received the Hamilton Memorial Prize of the New Zealand Institute in 1926 and a D.Sc. in 1927. His main research interest was marine and non-marine malacofauna of New Zealand, both recent and fossil. He also specialised on fossil Foraminifera. After a long period of unemployment, Finlay was appointed to the Geological Survey of New Zealand in 1937, and in the same year he married Jean Dorothy Waterson Gillies. He was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of New Zealand in 1939, and was awarded the scoiety's Hector Memorial Medal in 1941.

The solid shell has a depressed, turbinate shape. It is openly perforate to imperforate. The sculpture shows distant longitudinal lamellate ribs that cross the whorl from the suture to the umbilicus. Their interstices contain raised spiral threads, which grow coarser on approaching the umbilicus. The protoconch contains 1½ whorl, concluding with a prominent varix. The three whorls are tabulate above, and rounded below. The body whorl descends rapidly. The aperture is roundly ovate. The sharp outer lip is convex. The inner lip spreads as a distinct callosity over the body, and sometimes seals the umbilicus partly or wholly up. The ...
