Kelletia is a genus of large sea snails, whelks, a marine gastropod molluscs in the family Buccinidae, the true whelks.[2][3][4]
Distribution
One extant species Kelletia lischkei occurs in the Sea of Japan off the coasts of Japan and South Korea , and another K. kelletii is found of along the coasts of California , United States and in the Baja California, Mexico.[5][6]
Fossil species are documented in Japan,[7][8] California,[9][10][11][12][13] and Ecuador.[14]
Evolution
A molecular phylogeny of Buccinidae based on the mitochondrial 16S rRNA gene suggested that Kelletia is a closely related to Penion, a true whelk genus with extant species distributed in waters off of New Zealand and Australia.[5] Results of a further molecular phylogenetic studies using mitochondrial genomic and nuclear ribosomal DNA sequence data re-affirmed this relationship, and also demonstrated that Kelletia and Antarctoneptunea found in the southern Pacific and Southern oceans are sister clades.[3][4] The common ancestor of the three genera most likely evolved in the southern Pacific Ocean, and a lineage leading to Kelletia dispersed over millions of years up the western coast of the Americas into the northern Pacific Ocean.[3] Radulae and opercula morphology is similar between Penion and Kelletia.[15]
