Definition
Having the shape or form of a buccinid snail or resembling a whelk in structure.
Etymology
From Latin buccinum (sea snail) combined with the suffix -form (from forma, meaning shape), literally meaning 'whelk-shaped.'
Kelly Says
Marine biologists use 'bucciniform' to describe shells that have that distinctive spiral whorled shape—it's a shape so efficient that engineers still study it to improve hydrodynamics.
