Turbo floridensis Olsson & Harbinson, 1953
Statigraphy: Golden Gate Member of the Tamiami Formation
Location: Spoil, Collier County, Florida USA.
Status: Extinct
Notes: Similar in appearance to recent Turbo castanea which has alternating rows of major and minor noded spiral cords, T. floridensis has noded cords of equal strength. Its operculum is similar in appearance to that of T. dominicensis however that of T. floridensis has a flattened shelf along the rim that does not show well on the photo.
