Re-examination of the Neptunea lyrata (Gmelin, 1791) species complex in the northeastern Pacific (Salish Sea to the Gulf of Alaska), with description of two new species

The Neptunea lyrata (Gmelin, 1791) species complex in the Northeastern Pacific Ocean is examined, six species are recognized, including two new species Neptunea willetti spec. nov., and Neptunea cincticula spec. nov. herein described. The misunderstood Neptunea middendorffi (W. Cooper, 1859) is recognized and defined, and a neotype is designated.

Abstract

The Neptunea lyrata (Gmelin, 1791) species complex in the Northeastern Pacific Ocean is examined, six species are recognized, including two new species Neptunea willetti spec. nov., and Neptunea cincticula spec. nov. herein described. The misunderstood Neptunea middendorffi (W. Cooper, 1859) is recognized and defined, and a neotype is designated.
