Turbo snail plus#
The number of presently known living species in Turbo is 66, plus five subspecies. the genus Turbo is divided in 16 Recent subgenera. The first Turbo species were found in the Upper Cretaceous, approximately 100 million years ago.Īccording to Alf et al. The inner marginals are very large, with large cusps. The laterals bear supporting wings at their outer angles, and are various in form, with or without cusps. Frequently the central teeth are asymmetrical in this group. The median tooth consists of a narrow oblong quadrate basal plate, frequently with accessory plates of various forms, to the lower end of which is attached the oval body of the tooth,-a simple plate without cusp, bearing supporting wings at the sides. The median, lateral and marginal teeth are always present, and the formula is invariably ∞.5.1.5.∞. The radula is broad and generally rather short. This arrangement produces an operculum which exhibits all the whorls beneath, but which is only feebly, or not obviously spiral above, from the more or less general distribution of the calcareous matter. This circular operculum commences as a multispiral disc, like that of a Trochus, upon the outer side of which is deposited a thin calcareous layer by a lobe of the foot which projects partly over it. Species in this genus have a round aperture and a solid, dome-shaped calcareous operculum.
The shells of species in this genus are more or less highly conspiral, thick, about 20–200 mm, first whorls bicarinate, last whorl large often with strong spiral sculpture, knobs or spines, base convex, with or without umbilicus. Turbo is a genus of large sea snails with gills and an operculum, marine gastropod molluscs in the family Turbinidae, the turban snails.
