Description of Two New Species of Trophoninae s.l. and Typhinae (Gastropoda: Muricidae) from New Caledonia and Comments on Litozamia Iredale, 1929 and Siphonochelus Jousseaume, 1880

Venus, 71(1-2):1-11.

Abstract: Litozamia acares n. sp. and Siphonochelus (Trubatsa) wolffi n. sp. are described from New Caledonia. The radula and the operculum of Litozamia acares are illustrated and described. The classification of Litozamia in Trophoninae is maintained awaiting molecular data to either confirm or modify this decision. Litozamia longior (Verco, 1909) is reinstated as a valid species. The use of the subgenus Choreotyphis Iredale, 1936 is reinstated in Siphonochelus for a single species from eastern Australia, based on differences in shell morphology
