Stenosemus is a genus of Ischnochitonidae in the family Ischnochitonidae. This genus is extinct. Dead Stenosemus form shallow marine sediments. They have sexual reproduction. They are facultatively mobile animals.

URI: http://eol.org/schema/terms/extinct
Definition: A taxon is Extinct when there is no reasonable doubt that the last individual has died. A \r\ntaxon is presumed Extinct when exhaustive surveys in known and/or expected habitat, \r\nat appropriate times (diurnal, seasonal, annual), throughout its historic range have failed \r\nto record an individual. Surveys should be over a time frame appropriate to the taxon’s \r\nlife cycle and life form.
