Material examined. AM W.42062, stn.G235, Coconut Beach, 14°0'S, 145°0'E, coral rubble, coll. G. Rouse & E. Kupriyanova, 28 Oct 2005; AM W.44048, MI QLD 2341; AM W.45098, MI QLD 2435; AM W.47574, stn.G240, Osprey Island, intertidal rubble zone, 31 October 2005, coll. G. Rouse & E. Kupriyanova, 31 Oct 2005; SAM E3595, stn.G241, granite boulders, Bird Islet, coll. G. Rouse & E. Kupriyanova, 31 Oct 2005.

Diagnosis. Opercular funnel with 33 to 55 radii, very elongated, about as long as peduncle, with deep hollow, and inter-radiolar grooves almost reaching towards the constriction between funnel and peduncle.

Remarks. A taxon with a very similar operculum, but probably a different species, has been found at Long Reef (Sydney) and in the Abrolhos Archipelago (ten Hove unpubl.).

Distribution. Sri Lanka; Indo-West Pacific.
