Epitonium scalare (precious wentletrap) (23863080034)
Descrição:
Description: Epitonium scalare (Linnaeus, 1758) - precious wentletrap (apertural view) (public display, Bailey-Matthews Shell Museum, Sanibel Island, Florida, USA) The gastropods (snails & slugs) are a group of molluscs that occupy marine, freshwater, and terrestrial environments. Most gastropods have a calcareous external shell (the snails). Some lack a shell completely, or have reduced internal shells (the slugs & sea slugs & pteropods). Most members of the Gastropoda are marine. Most marine snails are herbivores (algae grazers) or predators/carnivores. Epitonium scalare, the precious wentletrap, is a marine gastropod that bears a distinctive shell having whorls with prominent axis-subparallel ridges. This species is predatory on anthozoans. It has been reported from the Red Sea, the western Indian Basin, and the western & southwestern Pacific Basin.
