Viriolopsis is a genus of very small sea snails, marine gastropod molluscs in the subfamily Triphorinae of the family Triphoridae. [1]
Dentaliida is one of the two orders of scaphopod mollusks, commonly known as elephant's tusk shells. The order Dentaliida contains most of the larger scaphopods, and is distinguished from the other order by the shape of its shell, the shape of the foot, and the arrangement of some of their internal organs.
Triphoridae is a family of very small sea snails, marine gastropod molluscs in the informal group Ptenoglossa, within the clade Hypsogastropoda. Almost all the species in this family are micromollusks and almost all are left-handed in shell-coiling.
Trochaclididae, common name the false top snails, is a family of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the clade Vetigastropoda.
Teretriphora is a genus of very small sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Triphoridae.
Teretriphora huttoni is a species of small deepwater sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusc in the family Triphoridae.

Annaperenna verrucosa, common name the warty ranella, is a species of large sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusc in the family Bursidae, known as the frog shells.
The Ptenoglossa is an informal taxonomic group of sea snails. This group was considered paraphyletic or polyphyletic by Ponder and Lindberg (1997) in their classification of gastropod molluscs.
Seguenzia is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Seguenziidae.
Aclophoropsis is a genus of minute sea snails with left-handed shell-coiling, marine gastropod mollusks or micromollusks in the family Triphoridae.
Metaxia is a genus of minute sea snails with right-handed shell-coiling, marine gastropod mollusks or micromollusks in the family Triphoridae, which are mostly left-handed in shell-coiling.
Monophorus is a genus of minute sea snails with left-handed shell-coiling, marine gastropod mollusks or micromollusks in the family Triphoridae.
Inella is a genus of minute sea snails with left-handed shell-coiling, marine gastropod molluscs in the family Triphoridae.
Triphora is a genus of very small sea snails, marine gastropod molluscs in the subfamily Triphorinae of the family Triphoridae.
After excluding groups not related, the informal group Sigmurethra has become the suborder Helicina, with the following infraorders and a collection of families with no superfamily:
Hedleytriphora is a genus of minute sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks or micromollusks in the family Triphoridae.
Iniforis is a genus of minute sea snails with left-handed shell-coiling, marine gastropod mollusks or micromollusks in the family Triphoridae.
Isotriphora is a genus of minute sea snails with left-handed shell-coiling, marine gastropod mollusks or micromollusks in the family Triphoridae.
Strobiligera is a genus of minute sea snails with left-handed shell-coiling, marine gastropod mollusks or micromollusks in the family Triphoridae.
Metaxia duplicarinata is a species of marine gastropod mollusc in the family Triphoridae. It was first described by Baden Powell in 1940, under the name Mendax duplicarinata. It is endemic to the waters of New Zealand.
