Abstract

Abstract Twenty‐four trochids and 6 turbinids are recorded from the Kermadec Ridge, north‐east of New Zealand. Additional data and new illustrations are provided for certain previously recorded species. The following species are newly recorded: Euchelus ( Herpetopoma ) foveolata A. Adams, Calliotropis ( Solaricida ) infundibulum (Watson), Clanculus ( Euclanculus ?) persica Habe & Shikama, Calliostoma ( Tristichotrochus ) sp. cf. tosaensis (Kuroda & Habe), and C. ( T. ) sp. cf. simplex Schepman. The following new species are described: Euchelus ( Herpetopoma ) pruinosa, Calliotropis blacki, C. eucheloides, C. delli, C. powelli, C. acherontis, C. crystalophorus, Solariella ( Microgaza ) alabida, S. ( M. ) dawsoni, S. ( M. ) hurleyi, Calliostoma ( Tristichotrochus ) gendalli, Leptothyra kermadecensis, L. benthicola, and Cantrainea inexpectata . Subfamily Angariinae is transferred from Trochidae to Turbinidae. Calliotropis Seguenza and Solariella Wood are discussed in some detail. The following genus‐group taxa are considered synonymous: Mazastele Iredale and Adamsenida Habe with Calliotropis; Ethaliopsis Schepman and Archiminolia Iredale with Microgaza Dall; and Talopena Iredale with Monilea Swainson. Preliminary remarks pertain to zoogeography, fossils, and the environment.
