Stomatolina Calliostoma
''Stomatolina'' is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Trochidae, the top snails. Description The depressed shell is rather flattened above and below. The aperture is quite oblique. The sculpture consists of numerous spirals, of which several have low carinae, more numerous intermediate riblets, and still more numerous interstitial spiral striae. These are sometimes decussated by growth lines. Distribution This maritime genus occurs in the Red Sea and off Indo-Malaysia, Oceania, Cook Islands, French Polynesia, Korea, the Philippines and Australia (Northern Territory, Queensland). Species Species within the genus ''Stomatolina'' include: * '' Stomatolina angulata'' (A. Adams, 1850) * '' Stomatolina arabica'' (A. Adams, 1854) * '' Stomatolina calliostoma'' (A.

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 ...
