Syrnola thelma is an extinct species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Pyramidellidae, the pyrams and their allies. [1]
The small shell has an elongate-conic shape. It has a smooth appearance, except for incremental lines. The suture is distinct but not deep. The apical portion is decollate. The aperture is narrowly ovate. The outer lip is simple and blunt. The base of the shell rounds into a strongly twisted short pillar. The body of the shell has no visible callus. The length of decollate fragment (two whorls) measures 2 mm, the diameter 1 mm. [1]
A fragment of the shell of this brackish water species has been found near Alexandria, Louisiana.
A spire is a part of the coiled shell of molluscs. The spire consists of all of the whorls except for the body whorl. Each spire whorl represents a rotation of 360°. A spire is part of the shell of a snail, a gastropod mollusc, a gastropod shell, and also the whorls of the shell in ammonites, which are fossil shelled cephalopods.
The decollate snail, scientific name Rumina decollata, is a medium-sized predatory land snail, a species of terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusk in the family Achatinidae. It originated in the Mediterranean but has been introduced in a number of areas worldwide. It was recently found to represent a species complex.
Sea snails are slow-moving marine gastropod molluscs, usually with visible external shells, such as whelk or abalone. They share the taxonomic class Gastropoda with slugs, which are distinguished from snails primarily by the absence of a visible shell.
