 | | Shell low end A totally particular development of the varices is found in the Muricidae, the Ranellidae (formerly Cymatiidae), and the Bursidae, for example, while in the Epitoniidae they maintain a characteristic lamellar structure and are present in relatively high numbers. |
 | | Murex, Siratus, Pterynotus and Ceratostoma, the conformation of the last varix contributes to protecting the mollusc from attacks from predators, since it is shielded by a true barrier of spines, as in the Murex, or by a uniform septum, thin but relatively solid. |
 | | And precisely in the Strombidae - and probably not by chance - almost all of the larger and more massive species, such as those of the subgenus Tricornis, have an aperture which is extremely developed and falring, forming a sort of large "wing", as can be seen in Strombus gigas, goliath and latissimus. |
