| Abstract |
The taxon Profundiconus smirna (Bartsch & Rehder, 1943) from Hawaii is reviewed. The new species Profundiconus smirnoides sp. nov. is described from material taken off New Caledonia (Chesterfield Reef, Grand Passage, Loyalty Islands and New Hebrides Arc, Norfolk Ridge), and northern New Zealand (Wanganella Bank, Kermadec Ridge), in depths ranging from 80 to 1150 m. The new species is compared to P. smirna, and to Profundiconus profundorum (Kuroda, 1956) from Japan. |
