Tiberia is the type genus of the tribe Tiberiini.[4]
Description
The very small
shells of the species in this genus have many
whorls. They are
umbilicate shells that lack both shell sculpture and the apertural tooth or teeth that are characteristic in most other members of the family
Pyramidellidae. They may, however, have slight biplicate folds on the
columella.
