Raphitoma

Raphitoma is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Raphitomidae.
The type species Pleurotoma hystrix Cristofori and Jan, 1832 is a nomen nudum. It has been validated by Bellardi, 1847 as “Pleurotoma histrix Jan.”
Distribution
This genus occurs in European waters, in the northern part of the Mediterranean Sea, and in the Atlantic Ocean off Cape Verde, West Africa and Angola.
Taxonomy history
The genus Raphitoma was created in 1847 by Luigi Bellardi (1818-1889) in his "Monographie des Pleurotomes fossiles du Piémont" for species in different groups without operculum.
Raphitoma now contains many species formerly assigned to Pleurotoma Lamarck, 1799, Clathurella (Carpenter, 1857) and Philbertia (Monterosato, 1884). Philbertia was synonymized with Raphitoma in 1990 because Dr. Philippe Bouchet did not consider valid the subdivision of species into different genera solely on the basis of differences during larval development.
In describing Raphitoma, the World Register of Marine Species (WoRMS) relied on an unpublished database "Nomenclator of Molluscan Supraspecific Names" by Bouchet P. & Rocroi J.-P. (2010). In December 2011, the WoRMS database still showed 21 species retaining the genus name Philbertia. In their publication "A new operational classification of the Conoidea (Gastropoda)", Bouchet, Kantor et al. (2011) still recognize Philbertia as a valid genus in the Raphitomidae.
As of the 2017 update to the 2005 restructuring of gastropod taxonomy, WoRMS recognizes Philbertia as a synonym of Raphitoma.
Description
According to Giannuzzi-Savelli et al. (2018), the shell of the species in this genus are characterized by:
shape: turreted to biconic-pupoidal with an impressed suture.
size: small to medium (5 mm to 25 mm) compared with the other genera in this family
protoconch: 3 to 4.5 whorls when multispiral (planktotrophic development) - otherwise paucispiral (lecithotrophic development) - this dichotomy of the larval development between sibling species can be used in distinguishing them).
body whorl: frequently keeled.
Sculpture: reticulate and diagonally squarely cancellated with the axial opisthocline ribs broader than the spiral riblets; sometimes growth lines visible between the ribs on the body whorl.
outer lip: thickened, showing inner denticles; crenulated externally.
columella: simple; sometimes slightly sinuous anteriorly.
siphonal canal: funnel-like; short to rather long; wide.
Data about the soft parts are scarce and suggest a variation between the species.
