Description of Pseudotalopia fernandrikae n. sp. (Gastropoda: Trochidae) from the Philippines

Abstract

Pseudotalopia fernandrikae n. sp. is described from the Philippines and compared with similar trochid species from the Indo-Pacific. The new species is mainly diagnosed by tumid whorls, a rounded periphery, a deep umbilicus, about 10 main spiral cords and only a few weaker additional cords, of which only the most adapical are granulate.
