Description edit
Aeneator is a genus of small to medium sized marine snails.[3][4] Large shells and fossils of Aeneator can sometimes be confused with those of Penion.[4]
Distribution edit
Most extant species of Aeneator are found around New Zealand,[3] Chile,[5] and Antarctica.[6] Numerous fossil species are also described from New Zealand.[4]
Evolution edit
Aeneator is closely related to the genus Buccinulum.[7]
