Clionella subventricosa is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusc in the family Clavatulidae.[1][2]

Subspecies
  • Clionella subventricosa kaffraria Kilburn, 1985 (Eastern Cape subspecies)
  • Clionella subventricosa subventricosa (E. A. Smith, 1877)

Description

The shell grows to a length of 22 mm.

The ovate, rather dark brown shell has a squat, fusiform shape. The eight whorls are slightly convex. The spiral sculpture shows shallow, well-spaced grooves. The axial ribs are rounded and number 11-14 per whorl. The shoulder angle lies below the middle of the whorl. The periphery is flattened so that body whorl is weakly biangulate. The aperture is rather large with a rather narrow, slightly notched siphonal canal. The color inside the aperture shows various shades of pale brown. The anal sinus is very shallow.[3]

Distribution

This marine species occurs from False Bay to Cape Agulhas, South Africa
