Buccinoidea
Buccinoidea is a taxonomic superfamily of very small to large predatory sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks. This superfamily is in the clade Neogastropoda according to the taxonomy of the Gastropoda (Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005). It had been placed within the infraorder Neogastropoda according to the taxonomy of the Gastropoda (Ponder & Lindberg, 1997). Families These families are within Buccinoidea in the taxonomy of the Gastropoda by Bouchet & Rocroi (2005): * Austrosiphonidae Cotton & Godfrey, 1938 * Belomitridae Kantor, Puillandre, Rivasseau & Bouchet, 2012 * Buccinanopsidae Galindo, Puillandre, Lozouet & Bouchet, 2016 * Buccinidae Rafinesque, 1815 * Busyconidae Wade, 1917 (1867) * Chauvetiidae Kantor, Fedosov, Kosyan, Puillandre, Sorokin, Kano, R.

Nassariidae
The Nassariidae, Nassa mud snails (US), or dog whelks (UK) are a taxonomic family of small to medium-sized snails, mostly marine gastropod mollusks in the clade Neogastropoda. These snails have rounded shells with a high spire, an oval aperture, and a siphonal notch. This family of snails is found worldwide. These snails are found mostly in shallow water, on sandy or muddy substrates, often intertidally, but sometimes in deep water. They can be present in very large numbers in suitable habitat. Nassariidae are primarily active and lively scavengers. Subtaxa , the World Register of Marine Species accepts the following 48 genera, arranged within 7 subfamilies. Anentominae E. E.

Neogastropoda
Neogastropoda is an order of aquatic snails, both freshwater and marine gastropod molluscs. Description The available fossil record of Neogastropoda is relatively complete, and supports a widely accepted evolutionary scenario of an Early Cretaceous origin of the group followed by two rapid diversification rounds in the late Cretaceous and the Paleocene. These sea snails have only one auricle, one kidney and one monopectinate gill, i.e. the gill filaments develop on only one side of the central axis. The shell has a well-developed siphonal canal. The elongated trunk-like siphon is an extensible tube, formed from a fold in the mantle. It is used to suck water into the mantle cavity. At the base of the siphon is the bipectinate (branching from a central axis) osphradium, a sensory receptacle and olfactory organ, that is more developed than the one in the Mesogastropoda. They achieved important morphological changes including e.g., the elongation of the siphonal canal, a shift ...

Penion Maximus
''Penion maximus'' is a species of very large predatory sea snail or whelk, commonly known as giant whelk or great whelk, a marine gastropod mollusc in the family Austrosiphonidae. Description ''Penion maximus'' is the largest species of ''Penion'' siphon whelk, and is endemic to Australia. The species could be confused with the sympatric species '' P. mandarinus'', however ''P. mandarinus'' is typically smaller and has a smoother shell with a shorter siphonal canal. Their shells are highly coveted due to the intricate designs embedded in onto the shells. Distribution The range of the species extends from waters off Tasmania and Victoria to lower Queensland. Evolution ''Penion maximus'' is closely related to another Australian species '' P. mandarinus''. The species have overlapping geographic ranges (sympatry) and may have evolved from a common ancestor via niche differentiation In ecology, a niche is the match of a species to a specific environmental condition.
