The genus was named by Blainville in 1828, and the type species is Triphora gemmata Blainville, 1828. Like most of the other genera in this family, the shells of species in this genus are extremely high-spired with sculptural decoration, and are sinistral (left-handed) in coiling.Triphora Blainveille, 1828, Daphne Cuvelier, and Philippe Bouchet, updated 26/02/2013, World Register of Marine Species, accessed 1/8/2013
