Family Fasciolariidae
Fasciolaria okeechobensis Tucker & Wilson, 1932
Stratigraphy: Golden Gate Member of the Tamiami Formation
Location: Construction site, Collier County, Florida USA.
Status: Extinct
Notes: Similar to the recent Fasciolaria tulipa, but with the first two apical whorls highly sculpted. Some authors have listed this species as an index fossil of the Middle Pleistocene Bermont Formation, but I have found it at several Tamiami Golden Gate sites as well as the Caloosahatchee.
