| Abstract |
Five similar looking species of Muricidae from the lndo-West Pacific are reviewed, illustrated and commented: Cvtharomorula ambonensis (Houart, 1996), C. benedicta (Melvill & Standen, 1895), C. dollfusi (Lamy, 1938), C. lefevreiana (Tapparone Canefri, 1880) ) and C. paucimaculata (Sowerby, 1903). The type material is illustrated for all the species. A lectotype is designated for Cytharomorula lefevreiona. The radula morphology is described. |
