SUMMARY
This genus-group taxon contains the only extant "Oliva" species (the type species: Oliva scripta Lamarck, 1811, see below) from the Caribbean currently not included in Americoliva Petuch, 2013. It is characterised by a very wide filament channel.
RV 5795. Suriname.
The type species is widely distributed in the Caribbean and North South America (Tropical Atlantic realm. Tropical Northwestern Atlantic province. North Brazil Shelf province). Oliva canaliculata Lea, 1843, from the Pliocene of South Carolina and Virginia, USA, seems to be its precursor.
