Aoteatilia Psila
''Aoteatilia psila'' is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Columbellidae.MolluscaBase (2019). MolluscaBase. Aoteatilia psila (Suter, 1908). Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species at: http://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=511812 on 2019-03-26 Description The length of the shell attains 6 mm, its diameter 2.5 mm. (Original description) The very small, white shell is fusiform, thin, almost smooth, but the base is distinctly spirally striate The sculpture: Excessively fine microscopic striae are present on all whorls, those of the protoconch excepted, crossed by fine dense straight growth lines. The body whorl shows broad flat equidistant about 20 spiral ribs with narrow linear interstices. They are distinct at the base, but more or less effaced on the upper part of the whorl. The colour of the shell is light-yellowish-white. The spire is elevated-conic, with a blunt apex, a little higher than the aperture. The outlines ...

Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species at: https://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=511814 on 2023-11-15 Description The height of three whorls without protoconch is 5 mm, with it probably about 6 mm; its diameter is 2 mm. (Original description) The very small shell is subulate, thin and fragile and minutely spirally striate. The sculpture consists of very fine, dense, and equal spiral striae from the protoconch down to the base, the former most likely smooth. Its colour is flavescent to fulvous, the protoconch purple. The spire is elevated, conic, somewhat higher than the aperture. The outlines are faintly convex. The protoconch is broken off in all the four specimens at disposal. The shell contains 5 to 6 whorls, lightly convex and rather rapidly increasing. Th ...

Aoteatilia Substriata
''Aoteatilia substriata'' is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Columbellidae.MolluscaBase eds. (2021). MolluscaBase. Aoteatilia substriata (Suter, 1899). Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species at: https://marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=511813 on 2021-08-07 Description The length of the shell attains 5.5 mm, its diameter 2.25 mm. (Original description) The small, thin and fragile shell has a mitriform shape. it is white with a violet apex, finely spirally striated. The sculpture consists of delicate equal and numerous fine spiral striae, extending over the whole shell except the protoconch. The spiral below the suture is a little stronger than the others; frequent inequidistant faint growth periods form the only axial sculpture. The colour of the shell is whitish, the protoconch light violet. The spire is elevated, conic, about 1½ times the height of the aperture. The protoconch consists of 1¾ whorls, smooth, glo ...
