Mitromorpha olivoidea is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Mitromorphidae.[1]

Description

The length varies from 6 mm to 10 mm.

Distribution

THis species occurs in the Mediterranean Sea off France, Spain, Algeria and Capri; also off Morocco.

gollark: You know it's equal to x-1 times a cubic of some sort, and you want to know exactly what cubic.

gollark: If you multiply the `(x-1)` by `(ax^3+bx^2+cx+d)` it should expand out into having an x^4 term.

gollark: I'm probably explaining this badly, hmmm.

gollark: Then set the x^4/x^3/x^2/x^1 coefficients and constant terms on each side to be equal and work out a/b/c/d.

gollark: Set it equal to `(x-1)(ax^3+bx^2+cx+d)` (the thing you know it's divisible by times the generalized cubic thingy), and expand that out/simplify.
