Taxonomy history

The genus ''Raphitoma'' was created in 1847 by
Luigi Bellardi Luigi Bellardi (18 May 1818 – 17 September 1889) was an Italian malacologist and entomologist who specialised in Diptera. Bellardi was born in Genoa and died in Turin. His collection is in the Turin Museum of Natural History In 1872, then a Pr ...
(1818-1889) in his "Monographie des Pleurotomes fossiles du Piémont" for species in different groups without operculum. ''Raphitoma'' now contains many species formerly assigned to ''Pleurotoma'' Lamarck, 1799, ''Clathurella'' (Carpenter, 1857) and ''Philbertia'' (Monterosato, 1884). ''Philbertia'' was synonymized with ''Raphitoma'' in 1990 because Dr.
Philippe Bouchet Philippe Bouchet (born 1953) is a French biologist whose primary scientific fields of study are malacology (the study of molluscs) and taxonomy. He works at the Muséum National d'Histoire Naturelle in Paris. He is also a Commissioner of the ...
did not consider valid the subdivision of species into different genera solely on the basis of differences during larval development. In describing ''Raphitoma'', the
World Register of Marine Species The World Register of Marine Species (WoRMS) is a taxonomic database that aims to provide an authoritative and comprehensive list of names of marine organisms. Content The content of the registry is edited and maintained by scientific speciali ...
(WoRMS) relied on an unpublished database "Nomenclator of Molluscan Supraspecific Names" by Bouchet P. & Rocroi J.-P. (2010). In December 2011, the WoRMS database still showed 21 species retaining the genus name ''Philbertia''. In their publication "A new operational classification of the Conoidea (Gastropoda)", Bouchet, Kantor et al. (2011) still recognize ''Philbertia'' as a valid genus in the Raphitomidae. As of the 2017 update to the 2005 restructuring of gastropod taxonomy, WoRMS recognizes ''Philbertia'' as a synonym of ''Raphitoma''.


Description

According to Giannuzzi-Savelli et al. (2018), the shell of the species in this genus are characterized by: * shape: turreted to biconic-pupoidal with an impressed suture. * size: small to medium (5 mm to 25 mm) compared with the other genera in this family *
protoconch A protoconch (meaning first or earliest or original shell) is an embryonic or larval shell which occurs in some classes of molluscs, e.g., the initial chamber of an ammonite or the larval shell of a gastropod. In older texts it is also calle ...
