Pomatoceros triqueter

Description

Pomatoceros triqueter (Linnaeus, 1758)

Type locality. Not precisely known, but North Atlantic. Not present in the Suez Canal, but see Spirobranchus tetraceros, below. On ecological grounds, it is inconceivable that Pomatoceros triqueter has replaced Spirobranchus tetraceros in the intertidal and splash zone around Alexandria, Egypt as recently reported by El-Rashidy et al. (2009), a finding that contradicts Abd-Elnaby (2005) [quoted by Ghobashy & Ghobashy (2005: 90–93); see Spirobranchus tetraceros, below]).
