Cerithium Sp.

Cerithium sp. refers to a genus of marine gastropod mollusks within the family Cerithiidae. T

hese snails are characterized by their elongated, often spirally coiled shells and are typically found in shallow waters, including sandy or muddy substrates.

Cerithium species play significant ecological roles, contributing to the detrital food web and often serving as indicators of environmental health. They are also of interest in paleontology due to their fossil records, providing insights into historical marine environments.
