Turritellidae
Turritellidae, common name the "tower shells" or "tower snails", is a taxonomic family of small to medium-sized sea snails, marine gastropod molluscs in the clade Sorbeoconcha. These snails are filter feeders. This method of feeding is somewhat unusual among gastropod mollusks, but is very common in bivalves. Shell description The shells of turritellid species have whorls that are more convex and an aperture which is more circular than it is in the auger shells which are similarly high-spired. The columella is curved and the thin operculum is horny. Anatomy of the soft parts These snails burrow into mud or sand. The foot is relatively small. Taxonomy The following five subfamilies were recognized in the taxonomy of Bouchet & Rocroi (2005): * Turritellinae Lovén, 1847 - synonyms: Zariinae Gray, 1850; Zeacolpini Marwick, 1971; Archimediellidae Starobogatov, 1982; Tachyrhynchinae Golikov, 1986 *Orectospirinae Habe, 1955 *Pareorinae Finlay & Marwick, 1937 *P ...
