- Abstract
This part of the Canarium (Canarium) urceus (Linné, 1758) revision after Abbott (1960) revision examines the northwest Pacific specimens, which are currently synonymised under Canarium (Canarium) urceus (Linné, 1758). Canarium (Canarium) nipponium n. sp. is known from the Ryukyuan Subprovince, Mariana Islands and Palau. The new species differs from others in lacking the fine sculpture on the early whorls and triangulate from. Given the propensity for species of Strombidae to disperse widely, to show a high degree of variability across their ranges, and to hybridise, it is expected that traits of this new species will be present in populations of neighbouring species, particularly within the Canarium (Canarium) complex.
