Comispira is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Cochlespiridae.[1]
General characteristics
[edit]Species of this genus resemble Sibogasyrinx in the presence of the subsutural row of nodules, but differ in usually more pronounced spiral sculpture on the shell base, of broadly-spaced and rather strong spiral cords.[2]
