Rhizochilus Steenstrup 1850
Genus Rhizochilus Steenstrup, 1850 Rhizochilus Steenstrup, 1850: 75. TYPE SPECIES. — Rhizochilus antipathum Steenstrup, 1850 (by monotypy); Recent, Indo-Pacific.Published as part of Oliverio, Marco, 2009, Diversity of Coralliophilinae (Mollusca, Neogastropoda, Muricidae) at Austral Islands (South Pacific), pp. 759-789 in Zoosystema 31 (4) on page 774, DOI: 10.5252/z2009n4a2, http://zenodo.org/record/452018
Diversity of Coralliophilinae (Mollusca, Neogastropoda, Muricidae) at Austral Islands (South Pacific)
The Coralliophilinae is a large subfamily of Muricidae, including 200-250 species that feed exclusively on anthozoans. The material collected during the expeditions BENTHAUS and RAPA 2002 at Austral Islands are reviewed. Twenty-eigth species are recorded, one species is described as new, Coralliophila australis n. sp., diagnosed by its large size and elongated shape. All but one species showed a planktotrophic development, 10 species (36%) were from shallow waters and 15 species (54%) from deep waters. The smaller proportion of deep water coralliophiline species (compared to the range and average on a global scale) in this marginal area of the Pacific, suggests that marginality may affect the deep water faunas more than the shallow water ones

Genus Magilus Montfort, 1810 Magilus Montfort, 1810: 43. Type species. — Magilus antiquus Montfort, 1810 (by monotypy); Recent, Indo-West Pacific. REMARKS Relationships between Magilus, Leptoconchus and Magilopsis is being assessed on the basis of detailed anatomical and molecular datasets.Published as part of Oliverio, Marco, 2009, Diversity of Coralliophilinae (Mollusca, Neogastropoda, Muricidae) at Austral Islands (South Pacific), pp. 759-789 in Zoosystema 31 (4) on page 784, DOI: 10.5252/z2009n4a2, http://zenodo.org/record/452018

Hirtomurex Coen 1922
