Turridrupa is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Turridae, the turrids. ^[2]

Description

(Original description) The solid shell has a cylindro-fusiform. Its colour is usually monochrome, sometimes brown orange or yellow. The protoconch consists of two smooth turbinate whorls, followed by a whorl ornamented with close arcuate riblets. The adult sculpture consists of numerous revolving keels, one or more of which may break up into bead rows. The fasciole (= spiral band on the edgse of a canal formed by successive growth lines) is indefinite. The siphonal notch has a short subcircular incision with a raised margin. The aperture shows revolving ridges on the palate. ^[3]

Distribution

This marine species occurs in the Indo-Pacific and off Australia.
