Admete viridula is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Cancellariidae, the nutmeg snails. [1]
The shell size varies between 9 mm and 27 mm
(Described as Admete borealis; originally in Latin) The shell has an ovate-oblong shape. It is whitish, covered with a brownish-horn epidermis. It contains six convex whorls, the upper ones obscurely longitudinally plicated. The body whorl is ventricose, transversely grooved with somewhat distant grooves. The sutures are impressed. The aperture is oval, with a thin expanded outer lip. The simple columella is arcuate, slightly truncated anteriorly. The outer lip has a sharp margin and is internally simple. [2]
This species is found in circumarctic waters (Greenland, Norway, Novaya Zemlya, Russia; Bering Strait, Alaska), in the northwest Atlantic Ocean and in the Gulf of Maine.
