Contents

Not to be confused with Neoguraleus sinclairi(E.A.Smith, 1884) (synonym of Neoguraleus finlayi Powell, 1942).

Authority

Tucker (2004) states that Drillia sinclairiGillies, 1882is a nude name, but it is not; Gillies (1882) renamed a misidentification by Hutton (1880), referring to p. 45 where Hutton gave a description of "Defranchia luteo-fasciata". This description is not copied from Reeve's description of "Pleurotoma luteo-fasciata". [1]

Description

The length of the shell attains 11 mm, its diameter 4.5 mm.

Distribution

This marine species is endemic to New Zealand and occurs throughout New Zealand and at the Steward Island and the Chatham Islands; fossils have been found in Pliocene strata.
