cypraeidae

In affinity to other Cypraeidae, the aperture of the shell is very narrow, and relatively long.

Of these the families most at risk are some species in the families Cypraeidae and Volutidae.

Toward comprehensiveness: increased molecular sampling within Cypraeidae and its phylogenetic implications.

In virtually all of the species in the family Cypraeidae, the shells are extremely smooth and shiny.

Almost all species previously belonging to Cypraea have been reassigned to other genera within the family Cypraeidae.

Genera within the family Cypraeidae include:

As is also the case in the shell of most other Cypraeidae snails, the shell surface is notably effulgent (shiny), as if it had been deliberately polished.

For nearly 200 years, every species in the family Cypraeidae was placed in one genus, Cypraea, but in 2002 the cowries were divided into many different genera.

The dark-toothed cowrie (also spelled 'cowry') is a species of medium-sized sea snail, a predatory marine gastropod mollusc in the family Cypraeidae, the cowries.
