The characteristic fusiform shell of Pareuthria has the posterior angle of the aperture usually slightly acute, with a pronounced subsutural ramp giving the somewhat expanded shape to the apertural lip. Sometimes this character is only visible in mature specimens. This genus has a mostly Magellanic distribution; however, one species extends the range to New Zealand. Harasewych & Kantor (2004) reported with doubt the presence of circum-Antarctic representatives in Pareuthria. Later, Kantor & Harasewych (2013) in a revision of the genus Falsimohnia, where some former species of Pareuthria are now included (i.e. P. innocens Smith, 1907 and P. hoshiaii Numanami, 1996), proposed that those species ranging outside the Antarctic Convergence should be regarded as a different genus other than Pareuthria. There are several important differences in the ... : Published as part of Pastorino, Guido, 2016, Revision of the genera Pareuthria Strebel, 1905, Glypteuthria Strebel, 1905 and Meteuthria Thiele, 1912 (Gastropoda: Buccinulidae) with the description of three new genera and two new species from Southwestern Atlantic waters, pp. 301-344 in Zootaxa 4179 (3) on page 304, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4179.3.1, http://zenodo.org/record/256431 ...
