The Murex Antillarum (Siratus formosus) is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Muricidae, the murex snails or rock snails.
Murex is a genus of medium to large sized predatory tropical sea snails. These are carnivorous marine gastropod molluscs in the family Muricidae, commonly called “murexes” or “rock snails”.
The common name murex is still used for many species in the family Muricidae which were originally given the Latin generic name Murex in the past, but have more recently been regrouped into different newer genera.
