Coralliophila Explained
Coralliophila is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the subfamily Coralliophilinae, the coral snails, within the family Muricidae, the murex snails and rock snails.
The genus Coralliophila is most probably polyphyletic and should be restricted to the species most closely related to the type species.[1] [2] Species in the genus Hirtomurex, situated in the Indo-West Pacific are not clearly distinguishable from the species in the genus Coralliophila sensu lato (in the broad sense) found in the Eastern Atlantic.[3]
Description
The outer and inner lips of the shell are irregular. They are moderate, not produced into an extended process closing the aperture. [4]
