About Pusula radians (Lamarck, 1810)
The scientific name of this species is Pusula radians (Lamarck, 1810). For adult Pusula radians, the shell can reach up to 21 millimetres (0.83 in) in length, with a diameter of approximately 15 millimetres (0.59 in). The shell has an ovate shape and a pinkish base color. Its dorsum features small pale brown spots and wart-like tubercles, while the base of the shell is marked by strong transverse ribs. Like all species in this family, the shell's aperture extends along the full length of the shell and bears teeth along its margins. This species is widely distributed along the coasts of Mexico (including the Baja California peninsula), Ecuador, Nicaragua, and Peru. It inhabits coastal waters, living under rocks in the area below the intertidal zone.
