GENUS
JASPIDELLA
OLSSON
, 1956
(2)
Type
species:
Voluta jaspidea
Gmelin, 1791
; OD.
Remarks:
The genus was established in the subfamily
Olivinae
on the basis of the tricuspidate rachidian tooth. The
type
species from the Caribbean has a shell similar to that of
Belloliva
, as well as the operculum, also characteristic for this family. No material was available to us and we attribute
Jaspidella
conditionally to
Bellolividae
on the basis of shell and radula similarities.
