Genus of molluscs
Fustiaria is a genus ofscaphopods in the orderDentaliida and is the only genus comprising the familyFustiariidae, with 24 species.[4]
The shells ofFustiaria are characterized as smooth, slender, circular in cross section, slightly curved, thin-walled, and virtually transparent. The central tooth of itsradula (chewing organ), called a "rachis", is unusual compared with that of other Dentaliids in that it is flat on its tip rather than pointed. The space around the foot (the "pedal sinus") is divided by a thin horizontal membrane called aseptum.
