Odetta (gastropod)
''Odetta'' is a genus of small sea snails, marine gastropod molluscs in the subfamily Odostomiinae, which is a voluminous taxon of minute marine gastropods with a heterostrophic protoconch.Gofas, S.; Bouchet, P. (2015). Odetta. In: MolluscaBase (2015). Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species at http://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=456339 on 2015-12-14 Taxonomy According to Gary Rosenberg's Malacolog however, "''Odetta''" is not a valid genus name. It is considered to be an unavailable name, because it was published as a "''nomen nudum''". However, by including the type species in Megastomia, Peñas & Rolán (1999) implicitly treated ''Odetta'' as a synonym of ''Megastomia'', contra van Aartsen, Gittenberger & Goud (1998) who hold it as a valid genus and are followed by the database WoRMS.

Sea Snail
Sea snail is a common name for slow-moving marine gastropod molluscs, usually with visible external shells, such as whelk or abalone. They share the taxonomic class Gastropoda with slugs, which are distinguished from snails primarily by the absence of a visible shell. Definition Determining whether some gastropods should be called sea snails is not always easy. Some species that live in brackish water (such as certain neritids) can be listed as either freshwater snails or marine snails, and some species that live at or just above the high tide level (for example species in the genus '' Truncatella'') are sometimes considered to be sea snails and sometimes listed as land snails A land snail is any of the numerous species of snail that live on land, as opposed to the sea snails and freshwater snails. ''Land snail'' is the common name for terrestrial gastropod mollusks that have shells (those without shells are known .... Anatomy Sea snails are a very large group o ...

Oscilla Felix
:For the genus of marine molluscs, see ''Oscilla'' (gastropod). ''Oscilla'' is a word applied in Latin usage to small figures, most commonly masks or faces, which were hung up as offerings to various deities, either for propitiation or expiation, and in connection with festivals and other ceremonies. It is usually taken as the plural of ''oscillum'' (diminutive of ''os''), a little face. As the ''oscilla'' swung in the wind, ''oscillare'' came to mean to swing, hence in English oscillation, the act of swinging backwards and forwards, periodic motion to and fro, hence any variation or fluctuation, actual or figurative. Many ''oscilla'' or masks, representing the head of Bacchus or of different rustic deities, are still preserved. There is a marble ''oscillum'' of Bacchus in the British Museum. Others still in existence are made of earthenware, but it seems probable that wax and wood were the ordinary materials. Small rudely shaped figures of wool, known as ''pilae'', were also h ...

American Malacologists: Melbourne, FL (USA). . XII, 195 pp. The status of this genus was for a long time confused, but the situation was clarified in a review by van Aartsen (1986). 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 ''Monotigma'' include: * ''Monotigma eximia'' (Lischke, 1872) * ''Monotigma fulva'' (A.
