Description of a new species of Siratus (Gastropoda: Muricidae) from Guadeloupe, Lesser Antilles.
-
Siratus michelae is described from six specimens dredged in about 70 m depth off Martinique, French Antilles. It is compared with S. cailleti (Petit, 1856) and S. kugleri (Clench & Pérez Farfante, 1945), both also occurring in the same area, but at greater depth.

Cenozoic evolution of Muricidae (Mollusca, Neogastropoda) in the Southern Ocean, with the description of a new subfamily
-
Gastropods are among the most studied group in Antarctica, and taxa with an advanced status of systematic knowledge can be used as a model to study how oceanographic and climatic patterns shaped Recent faunal assemblages. Within the ongoing study of the muricid phylogeny, we have analysed molecular and morphological data from species traditionally ascribed to the muricid subfamily Trophoninae. Particularly, the availability of specimens collected in the Southern Ocean and surrounding basins allowed to demonstrate as the genera Pagodula, Xymenopsis, Xymene and Trophonella, which are traditionally classified in the Trophoninae, actually belong to a distinct lineage, for which the new subfamily Pagodulinae is herein introduced. We propose and discuss a possible framework for the origin and radiation of Antarctic muricids.

The Recent Typhinae (Gastropoda: Muricidae) of New Zealand.
-
The Recent Typhinae from the New Zealand region are reviewed. Four species are recognized: Monstrotyphis pauperis (Mestayer, 1916), M. montfortii (A. Adams, 1863), M. tangaroa n. sp. and Siphonochelus solus Vella, 1961. A possible fifth species, known from a single, subadult specimen, remains unidentified.
