From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Genus of gastropods
Phasianella ,
common name the pheasant shells , is a
genus of small
sea snails with a
calcareous
operculum and a colorfully patterned shell, a
marine
gastropod
mollusc in the family
Phasianellidae .
Description
The white shell has a bulimiform or subglobose shape. It is polished, without epidermis or nacre, variegated with bright colors. The heavy
operculum is calcareous, internally paucispiral, with a nucleus near the basal margin. It is externally convex. The
columella is smooth, arcuate and not dentate.
The animal has long tentacles, and has usually pectinated head lobes. These frontal lobes distinguish this genus from
Tricolia , which lacks frontal lobes. The epipodial line contains generally cirrhi. The branchial plume is long. The narrow foot is long, pointed posteriorly, rounded before. Below it is divided longitudinally by a median groove. The rhomboidal jaws are covered with imbricating scales. The
radula is rather short. The formula of teeth is typically ∞ 5.1.5 ∞, but sometimes lacks the median and outer lateral teeth.
[4] Contrary to most spiral species, the two gills in Phasiannela are close together, so as to appear almost as one.

Distribution
The species in this genus occur in the tropical
Indo-West Pacific and off
Australia .
