Strictispira
''Strictispira'' is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Pseudomelatomidae, the turrids and allies.MolluscaBase (2018). Strictispira McLean, 1971. Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species at: http://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=390990 on 2019-01-27 Taxonomy Previously this genus was included in the family Turridae, subfamily Strictispirinae. Taylor ''et al.'' (1993) elevated this subfamily to the rank of family Strictispiridae. M.G. Faber (2007) stated that these species were conchological identical to '' Crassispira'', but differ by a different radula The radula (; : radulae or radulas) is an anatomical structure used by mollusks for feeding, sometimes compared to a tongue. It is a minutely toothed, chitinous ribbon, which is typically used for scraping or cutting food before the food enters ... type and buccal mass.

Pseudomelatomidae
Pseudomelatomidae is a family (biology), family of predatory sea snails, marine gastropods included in the superfamily Conoidea (previously Conacea) and part of the Neogastropoda (Taxonomy of the Gastropoda (Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005), Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005). In 1995 Kantor elevated the subfamily Pseudomelatominae to the status of family Pseudomelatomidae. In 2011 Philippe Bouchet, Bouchet, Kantor ''et al''. moved the Crassispirinae and Zonulispirinae and numerous genera of snails loosely called Turridae, turrid snails (which at that point had been placed in the family Conidae) and placed them in the family Pseudomelatomidae. This was based on a cladistic analysis of shell morphology (biology), morphology, radula, radular characteristics, anatomical characters, and a dataset of molecular sequences of three gene fragments. Genera Genera within the family Pseudomelatomidae include: * ''Abyssocomitas'' Sysoev & Kantor, 1986 * ''Aguilaria'' Taylor & Wells, 1994 * ''Anticomitas'' ...
