''Seguenzia cervola'' is a species of extremely small deep-water sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Seguenziidae.Rosenberg, G. (2013). ''Seguenzia cervola'' Dall, 1919. Retrieved through: World Register of Marine Species at http://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=492451 on 2013-06-10 Description (Original description by W.H. Dall) The height of the shell attains 4.5 mm. The white shell is small and slightly depressed. It has one small, smooth nuclear whorl and five subsequent whorls. These are flattened a little in front of a distinct suture. They are separated by a somewhat convex smooth fasciole from a thread-like keel above the periphery. In front of this is a wide, smooth interval. On the base of the shell are about a dozen spiral threads with wider interspaces, and very faint microscopic spiral striae are visible in all the interspaces under a lens. On the upper whorls, there is a small thread between the keel and the suture. Near the ...
