REMARKS. — Naquetia cumingii was previously reported from Fiji by Cernohorsky (1967: 124) as Pterynotus triqueter . Finet & Houart (1989) presented a historical review of this species. The shell bears 3 rounded, frondose varices on its last whorl. The apertural varix is strongly webbed, mostly on its abapical part, extending to the siphonal canal. The protoconch whorls are shouldered.
