Menestho
''Menestho'' is a genus of very small sea snails, pyramidellid gastropod mollusks, or micromollusks.Bouchet, P.; Gofas, S. (2011). Menestho Möller, 1842. Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species at http://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=138409 on 2011-11-07 Shell description The original description by Möller (1842) is brief and in Latin: "Animal pede elongato, angusto; ore simplici, membrana linguali destituto; tentaculis brevioribus, crassiusculis, oculos perparvos ad basin internum ferentibus. Operculo pauco-spirato. Testa conico-turrita." 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. Species Species within the genus ''Menestho'' include: * '' Menestho acuminata'' Preston, 1908 * '' Menestho akkeshiensis'' Habe, 1958 * '' Menestho albula'' (Fabricius, 1780) (Type species) (as ''Turbo albulus'') * '' Menestho b ...

Menestho Felix
''Menestho felix '' is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Pyramidellidae, the pyrams and their allies.Dall & Bartsch, ''Notes on Japanese, Indo-Pacific and American Pyramidellidae''; Proceedings of the U.S. National Museum, vol XXX n° 1452; 1906 Description The broadly elongated conic shell is turreted and subdiaphanous. It measures approximately 2.6 mm. The whorls of the protoconch are small, almost completely obliquely immersed and only a part of the last rounded volution is visible above the first of the later whorls. The 5½ whorls of the teleoconch are somewhat inflated, well rounded and moderately shouldered. They are marked by strong, equally developed, spiral keels which are separated by subequal, deep, rounded sulci. The latter are somewhat broader than the keels and crossed by many slender raised axial threads. Three keels appear partly upon the first and second, on the third and fourth suture, but the greater part of it is cover ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
