Abstract
A study of shells of the genus Bullina from collections in New Zealand, show that there are a number of species in local waters. The shell, radula, jaw-plates and external features of Bullina lineata (Gray, 1825) and a new species, Bullina roseana, are described. The shells of two other species, most probably Bullina melior Iredale, 1929 and Bullina lauta Pease, 1860 are described. Shells of other specimens collected in New Zealand are described and illustrated, but. the author did not feel an attempt at identification, or description as new species, was warranted at this stage.Keywords
