First record of the genus Parashiela Laseron, 1956 from the Eastern Atlantic (Gastropoda: Rissoidae), with the description of a new species

The genus Parashiela Laseron, 1956 currently only includes species from the Indo-Pacific. A new eastern Atlantic species of this genus is here described from Boa Vista Island, Cape Verde Archipelago on the basis of two empty shells. This is the first record of a Parashiela species outside the Indo-Pacific. The new taxon is compared with the most similar congeneric species.
