Egila Univestis
''Egila'' is a genus of small sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Pyramidellidae, the pyrams and their allies.MolluscaBase eds. (2020). MolluscaBase. Egila Dall & Bartsch, 1904. Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species at: https://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=456400 on 2020-10-29 This genus was previously placed in the tribe Chrysallidini of the family Odostomiidae. It has both extant and fossil (Cenozoic) members. Life habits Little is known about the biology of the members of this genus. As is true of most members of the Pyramidellidae '' sensu lato'', they are most likely to be ectoparasites.

William Healey Dall
William Healey Dall (August 21, 1845 – March 27, 1927) was an American naturalist, a prominent malacologist, and one of the earliest scientific explorers of interior Alaska. He described many mollusks of the Pacific Northwest of America, and was for many years America's preeminent authority on living and fossil mollusks. Dall also made substantial contributions to ornithology, zoology, physical and cultural anthropology, oceanography and paleontology. In addition he carried out meteorological observations in Alaska for the Smithsonian Institution. Biography Early life Dall was born in Boston, Massachusetts. His father Charles Henry Appleton Dall, (1816–86), a Unitarian minister, moved in 1855 to India as a missionary. His family however stayed in Massachusetts, where Dall's mother Caroline Wells Healey was a teacher, transcendentalist, reformer, and pioneer feminist. In 1862, Dall's father, on one of his few brief visits home, brought his son in contact with some na ...

Parthenina Typica
''Parthenina'' is a genus of very small sea snails, pyramidellid gastropod mollusks or micromollusks.Gofas, S.; Bouchet, P. (2015). Parthenina Bucquoy, Dautzenberg & Dollfus, 1883. Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species at http://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=565557 on 2015-04-03 This genus was previously placed in the subfamily Chrysallidinae of the family Odostomiidae. The name ''Parthenia'' was created by Lowe in 1840 for the species in this group, but had to be replaced since it was preoccupied by a name for a group of dipterans described by Roubineau-Desvoidy in 1830. Shell description In the original description Bucquoy, Dautzenberg & Dollfus (1833) states (in English translation) that ''Partnenina'' is a type of ''Odostomia'' with a mesh-like surface or with longitudinal ridges. Between these ridges there are series of spiral ridges. Many of the European species in the genus have for a long time been wrongly placed in the genus ''Chrysalli ...

Chrysallida Spiralis
''Chrysallida'' is a speciose genus of minute sea snails, pyramidellid gastropod mollusks or micromollusks in the family Pyramidellidae within the tribe Chrysallidini.Spencer, H.; Marshall. B. (2009). All Mollusca except Opisthobranchia. In: Gordon, D. (Ed.) (2009). New Zealand Inventory of Biodiversity. Volume One: Kingdom Animalia. 584 pp Taxonomy The genus ''Folinella'' had two preoccupied names - ''Amoura'' De Folin, 1873 ''not'' J.E. Gray 1847, and ''Funicularia'' Monterosato, 1884 ''not'' Forbes, 1845. The genus ''Chrysallida'' Carpenter, 1856 has been used as a catchall, particularly in the European literature following a lead by Winckworth (1932), for most pyramidellids having both axial and spiral sculpture but having otherwise little in common with the Californian type species ''C. communis'' (C. B. Adams, 1852). A statement that this is incorrect was voiced by van Aartsen, Gittenberger & Goud (2000: 21) who nevertheless still used ''Chrysallida'' as the genus ...
