Buccinulum is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod molluscs in the whelk family Tudiclidae. [3] [4] [2]

Contents

Description

Buccinulum are small to medium-sized marine snails. [5] [6] Species vary significantly in shell sculpture and colouration [5] and can be difficult to distinguish from one another. [6]

Distribution

The majority of extant and fossil species are from New Zealand. [7] [8] Most species are commonly abundant within the intertidal and shallow subtidal zone of New Zealand beaches. [5] [6]

Evolution

Buccinulum is closely related to the genus Aeneator . [4] [6]
