This is an unidentified or undescribed species of the genus Philinopsis - I call it Philinopsis sp. 01. Species of Philinopsis are usually found burrowing through sand or mud.
It was originally posted at these websites as Philinopsis sp. A  Genus: Pease, 1860.
For some genera, such as Trinchesia was the alphabet almost through. I had to change the distinguishing alphabetic character into a number. I have chosen 2-digit numbers, even if '01' looks a little bit stupid, and now is only the genus italic written.
