Raphitoma laviae
Raphitoma laviae is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusc in the family Raphitomidae. Description
The length of the shell varies between 5 mm and 15 mm. The protoconch is multispiral. (Original description) The reddish-brown shell has an oblong-fusiform shape. The six whorls show about 20 pronounced axial ribs, crossed by transverse riblets (about 5 in the upper whorls) forming a latticed structure. The aperture is oblong and is somewhat smaller than half the length of the shell. The outer lip is incrassate and notched within. Distribution
This species occurs in the Western and Central Mediterranean Sea. References
