Imbricaverruca n. gen.
TYPE SPECIES. — Imbricaverruca yamaguchii n. sp.
ETYMOLOGY. — From the Latin imbric- (to cover with tiles or scales) and Verruca , in reference to its otherwise Verruca -like appearance.
DIAGNOSIS. — A neoverrucid differing from Neoverruca in numerous ways including having 1) a more verrucid-like operculum despite having the included median latus well developed rather than vestigial or absent, 2) a fixed scutum and tergum much wider than high rather than at least as high as wide, and 3) in retaining a complete set of well developed imbricating plates on the movable side of the wall.
