<span class="mw-page-title-main">Sander Rang</span> French conchologist

Sander Rang or Paul Charles Leonard Alexander Rang was a French conchologist and interpreter of Arabic texts. He was, in 1816, one of the survivors of the sinking of the frigate Medusa, on which he was an ensign. He spent a good part of his life in La Rochelle, where he published his early zoological observations, in particular in the bulletins of the Society of Natural Sciences of Charente-Maritimes.In 1841 Rang was one of the founding members of the Société des Amis des Arts now the Musée des Beaux-Arts de La Rochelle.He specialised in marine fauna notably in sea hares, cephalopods and other molluscs and on the heterogenous group known as zoophytes. Sander Rang described many new mollusc species including the sea hares Aplysia dactylomela, Dolabrifera dolabrifera, the cuttlefish Sepia hierredda and the land snails Striosubulina striatella, Pleurodonte desidens and Opeas hannense.

<i>Vicetia</i> (gastropod) Genus of cowrie from the Eocene of Europe and Pakistan

Vicetia is a genus of cowrie from the Eocene of Europe and Pakistan. Five species are currently recognized with all European forms forming a single anagenetic lineage progressively growing bigger and developing stronger ornamentation. The last known species, V. bizzottoi, is the biggest known cowrie known to science with a shell length of 33.5 cm. They were likely feeding on sponges or algea and went extinct following widespread climate change at the end of the Eocene, giving way for more derived lineages of cowries.
