Description

Buccinulum are small to medium-sized marine snails.^[5]^[6] Species vary significantly in shell sculpture and colouration^[5] and can be difficult to distinguish from one another.^[6]

Distribution

The majority of extant and fossil species are from New Zealand.^[7]^[8] Most species are commonly abundant within the intertidal and shallow subtidal zone of New Zealand beaches.^[5]^[6]

Evolution

Buccinulum is closely related to the genus Aeneator.^[4]^[6]
