Trituba is a genus of minute sea snails, marine gastropod molluscs in the family Newtoniellidae.[1]
General characteristics
[edit](Original description in French) The shell is dextral, elongated, and almost cylindrical, with whorls marked by longitudinal riblets and ornamented with two small cords. The spire consists of nineteen whorls, five of which are embryonic. The body whorl, nearly smooth, divides into three elongated tubes. [2]
