Calliotropis is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Eucyclidae.{{WRMS species|138585|Calliotropis Seguenza, 1903||17 December 2018}}

Taxonomy

According to the taxonomy of the Gastropoda by Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005) the genus Calliotropis is placed in the subfamily Calliotropinae within the family Chilodontidae.

New insights into the taxonomy of the Seguenzioidea were provided by Kano (2007).Kano Y. (2007). "Vetigastropod phylogeny and a new concept of Seguenzioidea: independent evolution of copulatory organs in the deep-sea habitats". Zoologica Scripta 37(1): 1–21. {{doi|10.1111/j.1463-6409.2007.00316.x}}

Description

The size of the shell of species in this genus is small to moderate. The iridescent shell is thin and contains a conspicuous umbilicus. Its sculpture shows spiral rows with many tubercles.

The shells resemble Solariella, but differ in the radula, which is longer, with a larger number of uncini. The teeth of the median part are less denticulated.[https://archive.org/details/prosobranchiaofs13sche Schepman 1908-1913, The Prosobranchia of the Siboga Expedition; Leyden,E. J. Brill,1908-13] (described as the new genus Solariellopsis)
