摘要
There are at present ten Recent species assigned to the neogastropod genus Benimakia. We describe Benimakia nux n. sp. and Benimakia vermeiji n. sp., both from New Caledonia, and Benimakia rubus n. sp. from Vanuatu. We discuss other species in this genus from New Caledonia, reassigning Turbinella mariei Crosse 1869, from New Caledonia, and Latirus (Peristernia) sowerbyi Melvill 1907, from the Tuamotus and Marshall Islands, to the genus Benimakia. Radulae are studied for six species presently assigned to this genus and, based upon those studies, %26quot;Benimakia nodata%26quot; [Murex nodatus Gmelin 17911 is made the type of a new peristerniine genus Nodolatirus, which also includes the Austral Islands endemic Nodolatirus rapanus n. sp., the West Pacific Turbinella recurvirostra Schubert %26 Wagner 1829, and the South African and Indian Ocean Latirus robillardi Tapparone-Canefri 1879.
