Crassispira hypermeces is an extinct species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Pseudomelatomidae, the turrids and allies.[1]

Description

The length of the shell attains 10 mm.

Fossils have been found in Eocene strata in the Paris Basin, France.

gollark: Possibly not.

gollark: Mine has a horribly degraded battery, so while it technically shuts off at 1% it goes to that way faster than it should.

gollark: In any case, my application seems to be dealing okay with the increased database volume, searches still only take a few milliseconds.

gollark: Yes, I would use it if I had different requirements.

gollark: What about it?
