Ancistrobasis
''Ancistrobasis'' is a genus of sea snails, marine (ocean), and marine gastropod mollusks in the family (biology), family Seguenziidae. William Healey Dall, Dall (1889) regarded (with some doubt) ''Ancistrobasis'' as a section of the closely related genus ''Basilissa'' ''Watson, 1879''. Description This genus contains the dentate forms of species formerly included in the genus ''Basilissa''. Gastropod shell, Shell: The conical shell shows peripheral carina and collabral axial riblets. The midwhorl angulation and the spiral Lira (mollusc), lirae are present on all Whorl (mollusc), whorls. The posterior sinus depth is shallow. The posterior sinus has a U-shape. The anterolateral sinus is absent. The rhomboidal aperture (mollusc), aperture contains a basal and columellar sinus. The umbilical septum (a transverse plate secreted with early formed whorls of the shell) is absent. The shell contains pustulate microsculpture. Radula: The rachidian tooth is broader than high with latera ...

Ancistrobasis Depressa
''Ancistrobasis depressa'' is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Seguenziidae. Description (description by G.W. Tryon) The height of the shell attains 5 mm. The shell figured differs from ''Basillisa costulata'' Watson, 1879 (synonym of ''Ancistrobasis reticulata'' (Philippi, 1844) ) in the less flexuous radiating costae, which are nearly equal to the interspaces in width, and in the smaller number of spiral ridges, which are about ten on the base and seven to nine on the upper surface of the whorls. The armature of the aperture is a character which does not appear until full maturity. The other characters seem to agree closely with Watson's figure and description, and, taking into consideration the known variability of the abyssal shells, I do not feel justified in separating the Blake shells specifically from B. costulata. If I am correct in the identification, this material enables me to add a good deal to the knowledge of the species and g ...

Where they cross, they form small tubercles. The body whorl is angular at the periphery. The flat base of the shell is sculptured by 12 spiral lirae and by radiating riblets, which make the inner 9 lirae beaded, the outer ones being crenulated. The small umbilicus is funnel-shaped, pervious ...
