Description

A new raphitomid toxoglossan, Raphitoma smriglioi Pusateri & Giannuzzi-Savelli n. sp., is described from the Mediterranean Sea. It is the sister species of Raphitoma lineolata (B.D.D., 1883), from which it differs in the different protoconch (paucispiral v. multispiral), adding to a long list of pairs of caenogastropod species differing in their larval development.
