Spiralinella
Introduction '''''Spiralinella''''' is a genus of very small sea snails, pyramidellid gastropod mollusks, or micromollusks.
Nomenclature Both this genus and its type species have had a very complicated synonymy. The status of the generic name ''Spiralinella'' in contrast to the names ''Partulida'' and ''Spiralina'' was clarified by Corgan (1973), and the nomenclatorical problems around the type species were discussed by van Aartsen & Gianuzzi-Savelli (1991).
Life habits Little is known about the biology of the members of this genus. As is true of most members of the Pyramidellidae ''sensu lato'', they are most likely to be ectoparasites.
Species Species within the genus ''Spiralinella'' include:* ''Spiralinella incerta'' (Milaschewich, 1916)* ''Spiralinella marthinae'' (Nofroni & Schander, 1994)* ''Spiralinella muinaiensis'' Saurin, 1962* ''Spiralinella spiralis'' (Montagu, 1803) (Type species) (as ''Turbo spiralis'')
