Turridrupa
''Turridrupa'' is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family (biology), family Turridae, the turrids. Description (Original description) The solid shell has a cylindro-fusiform. Its colour is usually monochrome, sometimes brown orange or yellow. The protoconch consists of two smooth turbinate Whorl (mollusc), whorls, followed by a whorl ornamented with close arcuate riblets. The adult Sculpture (mollusc), sculpture consists of numerous revolving keels, one or more of which may break up into bead rows. The fasciole (= spiral band on the edgse of a canal formed by successive growth lines) is indefinite. The siphonal notch has a short subcircular incision with a raised margin. The Aperture (mollusc), aperture shows revolving ridges on the palate. Distribution This marine species occurs in the Indo-Pacific and off Australia. Species Species within the genus ''Turridrupa'' include: * ''Turridrupa acutigemmata'' (E.A. Smith, 1877) * †''Turridrupa akhaiderensis'' ...

Turridrupa Bijubata
''Turridrupa bijubata'', common name the crested turrid, is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family (biology), family Clavatulidae. Description The size of an adult shell varies between 11 mm and 25 mm. The color of the shell is chocolate-brown, encircled by narrow, lighter-colored keels The second keel, which is somewhat stronger than the others, is often broken up into small tubercles.

Turridrupa Nagasakiensis
''Turridrupa nagasakiensis'' is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Turridae, the turrids. Description (Original description) The elongate shell is turreted and luteous. It contains 9 whorls: two apical brown, smooth, convex; the rest keeled above at the suture, somewhat excavated beneath the carina, then convex at the sides, which contract inwards towards the base. They are closely ribbed and transversely grooved. The ribs are rounded and oblique, sixteen on the penultimate whorl and do not quite attain to the suture, but become obsolete in the sloping concavity above.

Of these the three uppermost are very fine and situated in the concavity above, the rest are much coarser and subnodulous on the ribs. The latter are attenuated inferiorly on the last whorl, and become obsolete a little below the middle. One of them near the tip is considerably enlarged in the form of a varix. ...
