Ocenebra erinaceus, common name the European sting winkle, is a species of predatory sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Muricidae, the murex and rock snails. Also known as the Oyster Drill, it is a pest in Oyster beds.
The name Ocenebra erinaceus is the accepted name according to the database World Register of Marine Species (WoRMS),[1] and the name is also accepted as valid by the ICZN (Op. 886) [2]
Description
The size of the shell varies between 8 mm and 65 mm. The shell has four to seven varicose, nodulous, encircled by prominent cord-like, raised ribs. These are alternately smaller, the smaller ones minutely scabrous. The varices are sometimes frondose, sometimes lamellated, occasionally appressed. Occasionally the larger revolving ribs thickly overlap the varices, forming a succession of elongated nodules The color of the shell is yellowish-brown and whitish within. [3]
Distribution
This marine species occurs in European waters from Norway to the Black Sea; in the Atlantic Ocean off the Azores and Madeira
