Volvarina Pedroelcojo
''Volvarina'' is a genus of small to very small sea snails, marine gastropod molluscs in the family Marginellidae, the margin shells. The difference between the genera ''Volvarina'' and '' Prunum'' is not clearly delineated and is based on morphological differences in the shells. Larger species with a strong callus are classified under ''Prunum'', while the slender species with a thin callus are classified under ''Volvarina''. Many species with characteristics that fall between the two extremes are ambiguous. Until at least 2010 there was no phylogenetic analysis to substantiate this classification. Species Species within the genus ''Volvarina'' include: * '' Volvarina abbotti'' (de Jong & Coomans, 1988) (after R. Tucker Abbott) * '' Volvarina abdieli'' Espinosa, Ortea & Diez, 2015 * ''Volvarina adela'' (Thiele, 1925) * ''Volvarina adrianadiae'' Cossignani, 2006 * ''Volvarina aethrae'' Espinosa & Ortea, 2015 * ''Volvarina affinis'' (Reeve, 1865) * ''Volvarina agatha'' Lase ...

D'Orbigny
Alcide Charles Victor Marie Dessalines d'Orbigny (6 September 1802 – 30 June 1857) was a French naturalist who made major contributions in many areas, including zoology (including malacology), palaeontology, geology, archaeology and anthropology. D'Orbigny was born in Couëron (Loire-Atlantique), the son of a ship's physician and amateur naturalist. The family moved to La Rochelle in 1820, where his interest in natural history was developed while studying the marine fauna and especially the microscopic creatures that he named "foraminiferans". In Paris he became a disciple of the geologist Pierre Louis Antoine Cordier (1777–1861) and Georges Cuvier. All his life, he would follow the theory of Cuvier and stay opposed to Lamarckism. South American era D'Orbigny travelled on a mission for the Paris Museum, in South America between 1826 and 1833. He visited Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, Chile, Argentina, Paraguay, and Brazil, and returned to France with an enor ...
