Note  Taxonomic Remark: The name Pyramidella ventricosa or Eulimella ventricosa (type locality: eastern Mediterranean) has been misapplied to a western Atlantic species (for which, see Eulimella polita (A.E. Verrill, 1872)) and to an Indo-Pacific species, the identity of which is uncertain. [details]
