Meaning of "ianthinae" in English

"Ianthinae" refers to a subfamily within the family Janthinidae, commonly known as violet snails or purple snails. These marine gastropods are known for their striking purple or violet shells. The term "ianthinae" derives from their bright coloration, which is both beautiful and functional, as it provides camouflage in the open ocean. These snails are pelagic, meaning they live on the surface of the sea, often drifting with the currents. They are also known for their unique lifestyle, as they float using a raft made of bubbles.
