The WoRMS database cites
Terryn Y. (2007). Terebridae: A Collectors Guide. Conchbooks & NaturalArt.
as an authority for recognizing both Impages and Hastula and for
putting both of those in Impages as valid species.
However,
Mol Phylogenet Evol. 2012 Jul;64(1):21-44. doi:

includes in its abstract the statement: "The non-monophyly of most
terebrid genera analyzed indicates that the current genus-level
classification of the group is plagued with homoplasy and requires
further taxonomic investigations."
