Pseudorhaphitoma Chocolata
''Pseudorhaphitoma'' is a genus of sea snails, marine (ocean), marine gastropod mollusks in the family (biology), family Mangeliidae.Bouchet, P. (2011). Pseudorhaphitoma Boettger, 1895. Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species at http://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=432540 on 2012-07-06 Description This genus was originally described by Boettger as a section in the genus ''Clathurella.'' The small, thick, monochrome brown or white, elongate shells are claviform. They contain 6 - 7 Whorl (mollusc), whorls. The prominent and continuous axial ribs are moderately strong. They are crossed regularly by numerous, fine spiral lirae, producing granular or transverse plicules. The Aperture (mollusc), aperture measures about a third of the total length. The weakly notched siphonal canal is narrow and shallow. The sharp outer Lip (gastropod), lip is denticulate on the inside and usually shows a particularly strong tooth close to the well-cut anal sinus. The Colum ...

Genus
Genus ( plural genera ) is a taxonomic rank used in the biological classification of living and fossil organisms as well as viruses. In the hierarchy of biological classification, genus comes above species and below family. In binomial nomenclature, the genus name forms the first part of the binomial species name for each species within the genus. :E.g. '' Panthera leo'' (lion) and '' Panthera onca'' (jaguar) are two species within the genus ''Panthera''. ''Panthera'' is a genus within the family Felidae. The composition of a genus is determined by taxonomists. The standards for genus classification are not strictly codified, so different authorities often produce different classifications for genera. There are some general practices used, however, including the idea that a newly defined genus should fulfill these three criteria to be descriptively useful: # monophyly – all descendants of an ancestral taxon are grouped together (i.e. phylogenetic analysis should c ...
