Calliostomatidae
Calliostomatidae is a family of sea snails within the superfamily Trochoidea and the clade Vetigastropoda.Gofas, S. (2013). Calliostomatidae. Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species at http://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=382180 on 2013-07-08 Description The Calliostomatidae are unusually diverse. They are characterized by a stepped spire and a pointy aperture. They may possess or lack an umbilicus. The collumella is sometimes thicker, partially covering the aperture. The spiral whorls can differ between narrow and robust. They inhabit a wide range of ocean habitats, from the intertidal zone to mid- bathyal depths. Taxonomy This taxon was long considered to be a subfamily of the Trochidae. 2005 taxonomy This family consists of two following subfamilies (according to the taxonomy of the Gastropoda by Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005): * subfamily Calliostomatinae Thiele 1924 (1847) ** tribe Calliostomatini Thiele 1924 (1847) - synonym: Ziziphininae ...

Calliostoma
''Calliostoma'' is a genus of small to medium-sized sea snails with gills and an operculum, marine gastropod molluscs within the family Calliostomatidae, the Calliostoma top snails. Previously this genus was placed within the family Trochidae. ''Calliostoma'' is the type genus of the family Calliostomatidae. Description The name of this genus is derived from the Greek words ''kallos'' (beautiful) and ''stoma'' (mouth), referring to the pearly aperture of the shell. The genus ''Calliostoma'' is known in fossil records from the Upper Cretaceous onwards. The thin, acute, coeloconoid (=approaching conical shape but with concave sides) shell is imperforate or rarely umbilicate. The whorls are smooth, often polished and spirally ridged or granular. The body whorl is angulated at the periphery. The aperture is quadrangular, sinuated at the base and slightly oblique. The columella is simple, usually ending anteriorly in a slight tooth. The nucleus appears to be either dextral o ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |
