Teretia cincta
# Teretia cincta

Teretia cincta is an extinct species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Raphitomidae.

## Description

The length of the shell attains 10.6 mm, its diameter 5 mm.

(Original description in Italian) This species is very similar to Teretia anceps, but it must be distinguished by a less delicate shape, because the whorls are shorter and therefore relatively wider. The cinguli are thinner and more protruding. The interstices are much wider.

## Distribution

Fossils of this marine species were found in Pliocene strata in Calabria, Italy
