Pseudostomatella clathratula is a species of small sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Trochidae, the top snails. [1]
The imperforate shell has a turbinate-depressed shape. Its spire is a little elevated. The convex whorls are transversely lirate, articulated with red, and crenulated. The interstices are closely latticed. The umbilical region is impressed. The thick columella is reflexed. The aperture is moderate, rounded and pearly within. [2]

Henry Augustus Pilsbry was an American biologist, malacologist and carcinologist, among other areas of study. He was a dominant presence in many fields of invertebrate taxonomy for the better part of a century. For much of his career, his authority with respect to the classification of certain substantial groups of organisms was unchallenged: barnacles, chitons, North American terrestrial mollusks, and others.
