Well, I was checking the names of Shell Oil products and they mention a Bivalve named Tellus here
http://www.shell.com/home/content/br-pt/about_shell/institucional/conchas_nomes_lubs_05141616.html
Maybe it was misspelled - or invalidated later (it was taken from a very old magazine)

> I am trying to find which family a bivalve named Tellus belongs, and if it is a genus or subgenus,
valid or not.
http://uio.mbl.edu/NomenclatorZoologicus/index.php has several genera
ending in -tellus but no Tellus. Do you have any more information
about it?
