Iolaea
''Iolaea'' is a genus of small sea snails, pyramidellid gastropod mollusks in the tribe Chrysallidini within the family Pyramidellidae.Gofas, S. (2010). Iolaea A. Adams, 1867. In: Bouchet, P.; Gofas, S.; Rosenberg, G. (2010) World Marine Mollusca database. Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species at http://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=138406 on 2011-11-08 The genus was originally described as ''Iole'' A. Adams 1860, but since this name was preoccupied by a bird genus (Blyth, 1844) the name was emended to ''Iolae'' A. Adams 1867. Shell description The original description (A. Adams 1860) of the genus ''Iole'' (later emended to ''Iolaea'' because the name was preoccupied) is: "Testa turrito-subulata, umbilicata; anfractibus convexiusculis, transversim sulcatis, sulcis subdistantibus, interstitiis longitudinaliter concinne striatis. Apertura oblonga, postice acuminata, antice integra, rotundata; labio libero, simplici, acuto." He further comments: " ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Pyramidellidae
Pyramidellidae, common name the pyram family, or pyramid shells, is a voluminous taxonomic family of mostly small and minute ectoparasitic sea snails, marine heterobranch gastropod molluscs. The great majority of species of pyrams are micromolluscs. The pyram family is distributed worldwide with more than 6,000 named species in more than 350 nominal genera and subgenera. This family of micromollusks has been little studied and the phylogenetic relationships within the family are not well worked out. There is an absence of a general consensus regarding which species belong to a specific genus or subgenus, contributing to much confusion. Schander (1999) names more than 300 supraspecific names. As there has been no serious generic revision of the genera worldwide, generic polyphyly can be expected to be rampant throughout the family. However, the family itself is deemed monophyletic. However a study in 2011 seems to indicate that this family is deeply nested within the Pulmon ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Chrysallidini
Chrysallidinae is a taxonomic group of very small sea snails, marine gastropod mollusk in the family Pyramidellidae, the pyrams and their allies. Taxonomy Chrysallidinae has been one of eleven recognized subfamilies of the gastropod family Pyramidellidae (according to the taxonomy of Ponder & Lindberg 1997). (The other 10 subfamilies are Odostomiinae, Turbonillinae, Cingulininae, Cyclostremellinae, Sayellinae, Syrnolinae, Eulimellinae, Pyramidellinae, Odostomellinae and Tiberiinae.) According to Schander, Van Aartsen & Corgan (1999) there are 47 genera in this subfamily, four additional genera may also be a part of this taxon. In the taxonomy of Bouchet & Rocroi (2005), this subfamily has been downgraded to the rank of tribe Chrysallidini in the subfamily Odostomiinae. Genera Genera in the subfamily Chrysallidinae include: * '' Chrysallida'' Carpenter, 1856 - type genus * '' Babella'' Dall, & Bartsch, 1906 * '' Bartrumella'' Laws, 1940 * '' Besla'' Dall & Bartsch, 1904 ...

Oscilla (gastropod)
''Oscilla'' is a genus of very small sea snails, minute marine gastropod mollusks or micromollusks. This genus is currently placed in the subfamily Chrysallidinae of the family Pyramidellidae.Rosenberg, G.; Gofas, S. (2011). Oscilla A. Adams, 1861. Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species at http://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=138415 on 6 July 2012 These marine gastropods have shells with intorted protoconchs. Life history 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 likely to be ectoparasites. '' Oscilla jocosa'' may possibly be a parasite on '' Trochus erithreus'' (Mienis 2003). Species of ''Oscilla'' The following species are mentioned in WoRMS: * '' Oscilla annulata'' (A. Adams in H. & A. Adams, 1853) * '' Oscilla appeliusi'' (Hornung & Mermod, 1925) * ''Oscilla aqabaensis'' Peñas, Rolán & Sabelli, 2020 * ''Oscilla aquilonia'' Pimenta, Santos & ...

Family (biology)
Family ( la, familia, plural ') is one of the eight major hierarchical taxonomic ranks in Linnaean taxonomy. It is classified between order and genus. A family may be divided into subfamilies, which are intermediate ranks between the ranks of family and genus. The official family names are Latin in origin; however, popular names are often used: for example, walnut trees and hickory trees belong to the family Juglandaceae, but that family is commonly referred to as the "walnut family". What belongs to a family—or if a described family should be recognized at all—are proposed and determined by practicing taxonomists. There are no hard rules for describing or recognizing a family, but in plants, they can be characterized on the basis of both vegetative and reproductive features of plant species. Taxonomists often take different positions about descriptions, and there may be no broad consensus across the scientific community for some time. The publishing of new data and opi ...
