''Lirularia succincta'', common name the tucked lirularia, is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Trochidae, the top snails.Rosenberg, G. (2012). ''Lirularia succincta'' (Carpenter, 1864). Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species at http://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=528721 on 2012-11-23 This species was originally described by Carpenter as '' Lirularia parcipicta''. Description The height of the shell varies between 3 mm and 7 mm. This small, but medium-sized for genus, species is somewhat less high than wide. The shell can take different colors, from brown to dark gray, often interrupted by white or dark spots. The convex whorls shows numerous, low, flattened, spiral cords. The sutures are slightly impressed. There is a broad channel on the base of the shell. The subquadrate aperture is somewhat oblique with its outer lip somewhat expanded and marked with darker spots. The columella is slightly arcuated. Th ...

''Lirularia canaliculata'' is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Trochidae. Description The height of this small shell measures 3 mm. It is broadly umbilicated, pearly and beautifully prismatic. The spire is depressed-conical. It contains five whorls, the first two are smooth, the remainder spirally lirate, and ornamented beneath the channelled sutures with a series of white tubercles, here and there marked with brown. The body whorl is encircled by chestnut-dotted carinae. The base of the shell contains a purple-brown zone. The umbilicus is perspective, margined by a somewhat tubercular cord. The aperture is subcircular.Tryon (1889), Manual of Conchology XI, Academy of Natural Sciences, Philadelphia
