In the Mediterranean we have two, possibly three species of Verticordia.
V. granulata G. Seguenza, 1870
V. acuticostata (Philippi, 1844)
V. trapezoidea G. Seguenza, 1876
see:
Aartsen J. J. Van, 1992: European marine mollusca: Notes on less
well-known species. La Conchiglia, XXIII, 264:45-48. Rome.
The only frequent species here (circalittoral) is V. trapezoidea.
