Doxander vittatus vittatus |
Doxander is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Strombidae, the true conchs.[1]
The name Doxander was originally given by Iredale to this genus in 1931.[2] But since he did not provide a description, the name Doxander, Iredale, 1931 is no longer available under Art. 13.1 of the ICZN Code.
