Pyrgocythara albovittata is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Mangeliidae.[1]
Description
The length of the shell varies between 4 mm and 6.4 mm.
The orange-banded shell is ovately oblong. The whorls have a narrow shoulder. They are longitudinally strongly ribbed with white, obtuse ribs close-set.
This species was described and figured by Reeve a few months later, under the name of Mangilia luteofasciata, and without locality.[2]
Distribution
This species occurs in the Caribbean Sea and the Lesser Antilles.
