Taxonomy
Cypraea amygdalum was named by Brocchi (1814) [Lectotype selected by Pinna & Spezia 1978 by inference of holotype, cf. ICZN Art. 74.6. Non 1852 Cypraea amygdalum, – Hoernes, Abhandlungen der Kaiserlich-Königlichen Geologischen Reichsanstalt, 3: pl. 8, figs. 8 a, 8 b [= Apiocypraea sp.].

Diagnosis
Reference | Diagnosis | |
---|---|---|
D. Fehse 2007 | Shell medium sized, pyriform, with a produced, indented anterior terminal and a curved and indented posterior terminal. Neither terminal is clearly delimited from the dorsal elevation. Spire involute, just above the bulge of the anal canal, usually obsolete and covered by thick terminal callus, marked by a spiral sulcus. Dorsum convex, with highest elevation at the posterior third and with the apex on the right side, smooth, margins slightly thickened by callus. The marginal callosities are rounded. Ventrum weakly convex. Aperture on ventral mid-portion straight, rapidly curved posteriorly, with parallel edges, relatively narrow, slightly wider along the fossula. Labrum thickened and slightly expanded medially, slightly declivous anteriorly, inner margin sharply edged, bearing 23 fine, close-set, regular labral denticles, which extend anteriorly and posteriorly as short folds onto the ventrum. Parietal lip weakly denticulate, with 17 developed denticles which weaken slightly in the mid-portion and strengthen again slightly on the posterior third. The denticles do not extend as folds onto the columella but do extend onto the fossula within the aperture. Terminal ridge marginal, bordering the siphonal canal, where it is slightly strengthened to form a narrow keel. Columellar teeth follow after a slight interstice. Fossula usually flattened, very steep, not clearly delimited from the rest of the columella, with 7 folds on its surface but with a straight inner edge without denticles. Its anterior border is formed by a continuation of the terminal ridge. The terminal ridge projects here at the anterior corner of the fossula. The anterior margin of the fossula is free, not fused with the inside of the dorsum. |
