Cyclostremiscus

Cyclostremiscus is a genus of small sea snails in the family Tornidae.

Taxonomy

Rolán & Rubio (2002: 46) hold Discopsis as a valid genus, distinct from Cochliolepis <small>Stimpson, 1858</small>, on the grounds that the latter belongs in the family Vitrinellidae and the former in Tornidae. This should be reevaluated in the perspective that both families are considered synonyms. Adam & Knudsen (1969) may have been right in placing the West African species in Cochliolepis.
