Marginellidae
Marginellidae, or the margin shells, are a taxonomic family of small, often colorful, sea snails, marine gastropod molluscs in the clade Neogastropoda. Taxonomy The higher classification of the family Marginellidae has long been in a state of confusion. Many popular works still treat all members of this family under the single genus ''Marginella'', basing them primarily on superficial similarities of the shell. The confusion over the classification stems from the fact that the earlier classifications were based rather crudely on shell characters. Although many good differential shell characters do exist within this group, those characters were generally misinterpreted or not recognized as significant. Such information as did exist on the radulae and the external anatomy of the living animals was widely scattered in the scientific literature, and internal anatomical descriptions were not available until fairly recently. In 2019 a new molecular phylogeny of marginelliform gas ...

Félix Pierre Jousseaume
Félix Pierre Jousseaume (12 April 1835, in Charente-Maritime – 3 November 1921) was a French zoologist and malacologist. He studied medicine in Paris where he then practised. His thesis was ''Des Végétaux parasites de l'Homme''. He participated in the founding of the Société zoologique de France and was President of that society in 1878. After 1890 he abandoned his practice to study malacology. He made many trips to the Red Sea, giving his collections to the Muséum national d'histoire naturelle. Jousseaume wrote many short scientific papers mainly published in ''Naturaliste, revue illustrée des sciences naturelles'', ''les Nouvelles archives des missions scientifiques et littéraires'', ''la Revue et magasin de zoologie'', and ''le Bulletin de la Société zoologique de France''. He also wrote in 1899 ''La Philosophie aux prises avec la Mer Rouge, le darwinisme et les 3 règnes des corps organisés'' (A. Maloine, Paris : xii + 559 p.), in 1907 ''De l'Attraction et autres ...

Genus
Genus ( plural genera ) is a taxonomic rank used in the biological classification of living and fossil organisms as well as viruses. In the hierarchy of biological classification, genus comes above species and below family. In binomial nomenclature, the genus name forms the first part of the binomial species name for each species within the genus. :E.g. '' Panthera leo'' (lion) and '' Panthera onca'' (jaguar) are two species within the genus ''Panthera''. ''Panthera'' is a genus within the family Felidae. The composition of a genus is determined by taxonomists. The standards for genus classification are not strictly codified, so different authorities often produce different classifications for genera. There are some general practices used, however, including the idea that a newly defined genus should fulfill these three criteria to be descriptively useful: # monophyly – all descendants of an ancestral taxon are grouped together (i.e. phylogenetic analysis should c ...

Sea Snail
Sea snail is a common name for slow-moving marine gastropod molluscs, usually with visible external shells, such as whelk or abalone. They share the taxonomic class Gastropoda with slugs, which are distinguished from snails primarily by the absence of a visible shell. Definition Determining whether some gastropods should be called sea snails is not always easy. Some species that live in brackish water (such as certain neritids) can be listed as either freshwater snails or marine snails, and some species that live at or just above the high tide level (for example species in the genus '' Truncatella'') are sometimes considered to be sea snails and sometimes listed as land snails A land snail is any of the numerous species of snail that live on land, as opposed to the sea snails and freshwater snails. ''Land snail'' is the common name for terrestrial gastropod mollusks that have shells (those without shells are known .... Anatomy Sea snails are a very large group o ...
