Type, T. politnm. 

 Synonym, Calceolina, A. Adams.

 Fossil, 10 species. Eocene. Paris basin. 



Ethalia, H. and A. Adams. 



Shell of the general aspect of Vitrinella, but agreeing with 

 Rotella in having a callous base, and differing from the typical 

 species of that genus in being frequently sculptured; in the 

 callus winding round, generally not covering, the umbilicus; 

 and in the outside of the callus not being glossy. The hp is 

 generally not reflected over the body whorl.
