Pondorbis alfredensis Bartsch, 1915

( Figure 5 View FIGURE 5 J–L)

Pondorbis alfredensis Bartsch, 1915: 171 , pl. 36, figs 1–3. Barnard, 1963c: 180. Kensley, 1974: 68, fig. 207 [not 208 as cited]. Type loc.: Port Alfred, E. Cape; holotype in USNM (250557).

Pondorbis admirabilis Turton, 1932: 200 , pl. 52, no. 1389. Type loc.: Port Alfred, E. Cape; type material probably in OXUM, but verification required.

Pondorbis iotoides Turton, 1932: 200 , pl. 52, no. 1390. Type loc.: Port Alfred, E. Cape; type material probably in OXUM, but verification required.

Pondorbis inconspicua Turton, 1932: 200 , pl. 52, no. 1391. Type loc.: Port Alfred, E. Cape; type material probably in OXUM, but verification required.

Distribution. KwaZulu-Natal south coast (Aliwal Shoal) to Algoa Bay; beach-drift to 27 m (no data for living specimens).

Notes. This species shows considerable resemblance to species of Liotella Iredale, 1915 . The two generic names were both published in 1915, Liotella on 12 July and Pondorbis on 28 July, the former thus has priority, should the two be deemed synonymous when studied in more detail.

Skenea J. Fleming, 1828 . Type species (s.d. Gray 1847): Helix serpuloides Montagu, 1808.
