Awateria is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Borsoniidae.[1] Most species in this genus have become extinct.
Description
In general shape and sculpture the type of this genus is reminiscent of Arcularia Link, 1807 (synonym of Nassarius Duméril, 1805), the protoconch is comparatively large. The fasciole runs between the wreath of subsutural nodules and the upright ribs. The canal is short, wide, and effuse. From Epideira Hedley, 1918, to which, it seems to be related, the larger protoconch, few and rapidly increasing whorls, the subcylindrical form and the shallow sinus of Awateria readily distinguish it.[2]
