'''''Tiberia''''' is a [genus](/source/genus) of minute [parasitic](/source/parasite) [sea snail](/source/sea_snail)s, [marine](/source/marine_(ocean)) [gastropod](/source/gastropod) [mollusc](/source/mollusc)s in the [family](/source/Family_(taxonomy)) [Pyramidellidae](/source/Pyramidellidae), the pyrams and their allies.<ref>WoRMS (2010). ''Tiberia'' Monterosato, 1875. In: Bouchet, P.; Gofas, S.; Rosenberg, G. (2010) World Marine Mollusca database. Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species at http://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=138420 on 2011-03-21</ref> ''Tiberia'' is the only genus in the tribe '''Tiberiini'''.

== Taxonomy ==
According to [Schander](/source/Christoffer_Schander), Van Aartsen & Corgan (1999) the subfamily Tiberiinae contains a single genus, ''Tiberia''.<ref>{{cite journal

Tiberiinae was one of eleven recognised subfamilies in the family [Pyramidellidae](/source/Pyramidellidae) according to the taxonomy of [Ponder](/source/Winston_Ponder) & [Lindberg](/source/David_R._Lindberg) (1997).<ref>{{cite journal

However, in the [taxonomy of Bouchet & Rocroi](/source/Taxonomy_of_the_Gastropoda_(Bouchet_%26_Rocroi%2C_2005)) (2005), this subfamily was downgraded to the rank of [tribe](/source/Tribe_(biology)) Tiberiini in the subfamily [Syrnolinae](/source/Syrnolinae).<ref name="Bouchet 2005"/>

''Tiberia'' is the type genus of the tribe Tiberiini.<ref name="Bouchet 2005">{{Bouchet 2005}}</ref>

== Description ==
The very small [shells](/source/gastropod_shell) of the species in this genus have many [whorl](/source/Whorl_(mollusc))s. They are [umbilicate](/source/Umbilicus_(mollusc)) shells that lack both shell sculpture and the apertural tooth or teeth that are characteristic in most other members of the family [Pyramidellidae](/source/Pyramidellidae). They may, however, have slight biplicate folds on the [columella](/source/Columella_(gastropod)).
