Compsodrillia Nana
''Compsodrillia nana'' is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Pseudomelatomidae. Description The length of the shell attains 8.7 mm, its diameter 3.1 mm. (Original description) The small, elongate-conic shell is yellowish white. The first one-half of the protoconch whorl is well rounded, smooth, the last half is marked by a few rather distantly spaced, slightly protractively slanting axial riblets. The postnuclear are whorls well rounded, the first marked by three slender spiral cords, of which the anterior two increase more rapidly in size than the first one, which remains rather feeble. The summit of the whorls is marked by a smooth spiral cord representing the portion appressed to the preceding turn. On the later whorls the sinal sulcus at the summit is crossed by two slender spiral threads anterior to the cord at the summit which divides the space between this cord and the first strong nodulose cord into nearly equal portions.

Compsodrillia Haliplexa
''Compsodrillia haliplexa'' is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Pseudomelatomidae, the turrids and allies. Description The length of the shell attains 27 mm, its diameter 8 mm. (Original description) The shell contains 12 whorls, excluding the (defective) protoconch.
