Six lots were listed as this species in Dall (1889a: 90) and are located in the USNM and MCZ: Location Depth Catalog Number Identification (Count) The specimen most closely matching Dall’s description was designated as lectotype by Tippett (1995: 133) and is in USNM 87471 (17.8 x 5.8 mm ) (Pl. 90, Fig. 1 ). The other specimen from that lot, which was moved to USNM 887466, belongs in Bellaspira and may possibly be undescribed. Only 1 other specimen is F. pagodula : 11.6 x 4.9 mm , in 50 fms [ 91 m ] from W of Florida, R/V Blake Exped., 1878 (MCZ 7071). It is in poor condition, missing the top of its spire (Pl. 90, Fig. 2 ). The remaining 16 paralectotypes are not F. pagodula ; nine are treated under Neodrillia crassa .

Mexico (N off Quintana Roo); off Louisiana; W Florida (off Hillsborough Co.; off Sarasota Co.); Cuba (off Havana). Reports of this species from Brazil (Bahia, Rio Grande do Norte & Abrolhos Is.) need to be confirmed. The range of reported depths is 73– 320 m . Description. Shell small (to 22.3 mm ), fusiform, truncated anteriorly, spire tall for genus, up to 10½ slightly convex whorls overall, suture undulates over ribs of preceding whorl, last whorl approximately 49% of total length. Protoconch of approximately 2 smooth, glossy, round whorls. Axial sculpture of strong straight ribs that extend from suture-to-suture, 9–11 on the penultimate, 6–8 to the varix on last whorl where they evanesce on the shell base before the anterior fasciole. Ribs are slightly depressed below the suture, marking the region of the sulcus. Varix hump-like, about ⅓-turn from the edge of the outer lip. Spiral sculpture of grooves or ridges on the anterior fasciole and a shell surface microsculpture of fine, wavy, incised lines, sometimes obsolete near the suture, that are intersected by growth striae, producing rows of pits between. Sulcus indistinct, marked by a slight impression of the ribs at about ⅓-whorl height. Outer lip thin, flattened from varix to its edge, which forms a low arc from anal sinus to anterior canal. Lip folded inward from anal sinus, then anteriorly for about ½ the length of the lip. Anal sinus deeply notched, U-shaped and offset laterally a little from the shell axis by the parietal lobe. Edge of sinus flared, spout-like. Inner lip thin, unemarginate in parietal area, slightly erect on anterior canal, formed into a parietal lobe posteriorly. Anterior canal short, open, and without a significant notch. Anterior fasciole with spiral grooves or ridges. Color beige-white with a narrow, pale yellow or brownish yellow mid-whorl band that may be interrupted by lighter-colored ribs. Remarks. Nomenclature. Some earlier workers (M. Smith, 1934, Abbott, 1974, Turgeon, 1988) placed Fenimorea pagodula in Cymatosyrinx Dall, 1889 ; however, members of that genus have a carinate protoconch and a swollen anterior fasciole with a distinct marginal ridge (Powell, 1966: 91), not at all like the fasciole of specimens in Dall’s syntypes . Taxonomy. Fenimorea pagodula possesses the shell surface microsculpture typical of Fenimorea , has ribs that extend from suture-to-suture but somewhat modified by the sulcus, and a deep U-shaped anal sinus. The margin of the sulcus is only slightly impressed, varix not hump-like, and anterior canal moderately long as is typical of deep water species of this genus. Variability. The eight unbroken specimens have an average total length of 18.94 mm ( 17.4–22.3 mm ), and average W/ L ratio of 0.326. Identification. Fenimorea pagodula is very similar to F. petiti Tippett, 1995 , F. elongata , new species , and Neodrillia crassa , new species . It differs from F. petiti in possessing a narrower shell with a taller spire (W/ L ratio of 0.326 versus 0.397), less convex ribs, and a paler mid-whorl color band. From F. elongata it differs in possessing whorl peripheries below mid-whorl, not evenly rounded. The last whorl of F. pagodula is angled to the right when viewed ventrally, not as straight as in F. elongata . The base color of the two species is beige-white, but F. pagodula has a pale yellow to brownish-yellow band that tends to override the ribs, not the diffuse pinkish band confined to intercostal space exhibited by F. elongata . Fenimorea pagodula also differs in possessing a somewhat broader shell (W/ L ratio 0.326 versus 0.311) than F. elongata . It can be distinguished from N. crassa on the basis of shell microsculpture. Dall described F. pagodula as having “spiral sculpture of fine engraved lines”, which is typical of Fenimorea and present only on the lectotype and shell fragment from off W Florida. Neodrillia crassa , on the other hand, has a shell surface microsculpture of coarse raised threads, which is characteristic of Neodrillia . The two species differ in other respects too. Fenimorea pagodula is narrower, with a taller spire and has fewer ribs.
