Stellaria testigera, common name finger carrier shell, is a species of large sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Xenophoridae, the carrier shells.

[1] Stellaria testigera profunda is present in the Gulf of Aden and in North East Africa,[2] while Stellaria testigera digitata can be found in Senegal and Western Africa.

[3] These shells are characterized by the expanded peripherical flange, the presence of digitations and the smooth dorsal surface.

[4][5] Fossils of Stellaria testigera are found in marine strata from the Miocene to Pliocene (age range: from 20.43 to 3.6 million years ago.).

[6] These mollusks lived in the Mediterranean and spread to the Atlantic Africa and the Gulf of Aden.
