Clavatula muricata

Clavatula muricata, common name the muricate turrid, is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Clavatulidae.

The upper portion of the whorls are smooth and concave, with a sutural band of tubercles, sometimes becoming spinose.

This is caused by rude curved longitudinal ribs crossed by the revolving sculpture.

This species varies much in form and in the degree of development of the tubercles and spines.

[3] This species occurs in the Atlantic Ocean off São Tomé and Príncipe and from Senegal to Gabon;
