Scabricola [Scabricola]

Description

Scabricola is a genus known for its species' textured or sculptured shells, which can be quite varied in pattern and coloration. These snails inhabit tropical marine waters, often found in sandy or muddy substrates where they hunt for their invertebrate prey. The shells of Scabricola species are typically elongated with a somewhat rough surface, which differentiates them from the smoother shells of other genera in the Mitridae family.
