Dear James,

Sally Kaicher treats all but the last of these (I can't find "Anachis"
troglodytes Souverbie) in her card pack.  Remember that Paul Callomon
created a very useful the index, which is linked to the COA website:

http://coa.acnatsci.org/conchnet/kaicher.txt

Each of the taxa you iterate IS a Columbellid; all except the last fit in
Costoanachis Sacco, 1890.  The last is treated, with an extensive synonymy,
as Zafra troglodytes (Souverbie in Souverbie and Montrouzier, 1866) in
Cernhorky's (1972) "Marine shells of the Pacific Volume II" p. 138; pl. 41
fig. 8.
