Tritia grana

Classification

Tritia grana is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Nassariidae, the Nassa mud snails or dog whelks. Spelling The specific name was originally introduced in the binomen Buccinum grana, translated in French as "buccin graine". This has been emended to granum by Kiener (1834: 22) and most subsequent authors, presumably considering that the correct Latin word for "graine" ("seed") is granum.
