Cerithideopsilla conica is a species of small sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Potamididae.[2]
Taxonomy
Reid et al. (2008)[3] moved Potamides conicus to the genus Cerithideopsilla based on the molecular phylogeny research.[3] Other subsequent study also confirmed this placement within Cerithideopsilla.[1]
Distribution
Distribution of Cerithideopsilla conica include Mediterranean and Indian Ocean.[3]
This species occurs in or around:
Description
