A new species of Cerithium (Gastropoda: Cerithiidae) from the South China Sea
摘要
Abstract
Specimens of a new species of Cerithiidae
Cerithium mangrovum n. sp.
were collected during two surveys along the coasts of Hainan and Guangdong Province
China. Usually associated with potamidid snails
this species often occurs in large populations between the mid-high tidal zones in a range of habitats
including mangroves
grass beds
silt
mud
and coral reefs. C. mangrovum n. sp. has a slender and tapering shell and the straight-sided whorl bears three aligned beaded spiral cords. The thick outer lip has a wide posterior sinus. It morphologically resembles C. coralium Kiener
1841. The shell of C. coralium is usually larger and wider and the spiral cords are not as beaded as in C. mangrovum n. sp. Its radula has a rachidian tooth with a shallow
wide
median basal projection while the rachidian tooth of C. mangrovum n. sp. has a moderately long
median basal projection.
