Alvania Hoeksemai

''Alvania'' is a genus of minute sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks or micromollusks in the family Rissoidae.

They form a very diversified group within the Rissoidae family.

Description

''Alvania'' as currently used may not be monophyletic.

The genus ''Alvinia'' has been synonymized with ''Alvania'', until a consistent phylogenetic scheme emerges for the whole group. , is sometimes considered a separate genus.Gofas, S. (2012). Alvinia Monterosato, 1884. Accessed through: World Register of Marine * At http://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=574680 on 18 June 2012

The genus Alvania comprises species with small shells with heights measuring between 1 mm and 7 mm. Their general shape is ovate-conical, reticulated with axial and spirals elements. They have a continuous peristome. Their coloration is variable.

Some species such as '' Alvania sculptilis'' have been named twice with the second naming becoming a junior secondary homonym. However, the genus ''Alvania'' as currently used has a very broad taxonomic extension, and these species may very well end up in different genera when a robust phylogeny becomes available.

Distribution

These marine species can be found worldwide (except in the antarctic and subantarctic regions). They can be found from intertidal depths to abyssal depths.
