The porcelain snail, Turbo funiculosus, is a potential fishery resource that almost has not been studied or used commercially. In March of 1992, we sampled T. funiculosus in Bahia Binners and Bahia Blanca, Socorro Island, Revillagigedo Archipelago, using 25 m2 quadrants. We found that total length varies between 3.0 and 85 mm, proportional weight between 3.0 and 228 g, and density between 6.21 and 9.87 ind/m2. The largest organisms (over 50 mm) contain 30.6% of soft parts. Porcelain snail populations remain unexploited on Revillagedo Archipelago and could be a potential resource under an adequate management strategy.
瓷螺（Turbo funiculosus）是一种潜在的渔业资源，几乎未得到研究或商业利用。1992年3月，我们在雷维利亚希赫多群岛索科罗岛的比内尔斯湾和布兰卡湾，用25平方米的样方对瓷螺进行了采样。我们发现，其全长在3.0至85毫米之间，相对重量在3.0至228克之间，密度在6.21至9.87个/平方米之间。最大的个体（超过50毫米）软组织占比为30.6%。在雷维利亚希赫多群岛，瓷螺种群尚未得到开发，在适当的管理策略下可能成为一种潜在资源。
