... sense (restricted to the marine Indo-West Pacific region) a global phylogenetic analysis of Nassariidae is needed before its proper allocation can be determined, as already noted by Vermeij and Wesselingh (2002) . We here rename the Peruvian fossil as Nassarius (s.l.) wesselinghi in honor of Frank...

...D. M. HAASL Abstract Phylogenetic relationships within the neogastropod family Nassariidae are poorly understood as are relationships between the Nassariidae and other fossil and extant buccinid taxa. The poor resolution of nassariid and buccinoidean relationships is due to: 1) the complex...

...Warren D. Allmon; Dana S. Friend Abstract Numerous species of “oliviform” gastropods have been recognized in the Paleogene of the U.S. Gulf Coastal Plain, many of which have previously been allied to the “ Bullia group” in the family Nassariidae, and placed in a variety of poorly defined genera. We...

...), and ? Nassarius reductus (Nassariidae) is recognized as a new species. These gastropods are among the very few marine invaders in the otherwise freshwater Pebas fauna. The small number of marine to freshwater transitions among South American molluscs contrasts with the situation among South American fishes...

.... These same sculptural features are consistent with placement of Mexfusus in Buccinoidea in the sense of F.

... of the gastropod Nassarius vinctu s (<15 mm), retrieved by multicorer, were observed living on the sediment surface, with shells often coated by algae. These members of the family Nassariidae are active scavengers on muddy substrates and may live in large colonies ( Kilburn and Rippey, 1982 ). Nassariidae...
