The Eastern Australian Cymbiola Swainson, 1831
New Revision of the Subgenus Cymbiolacca Iredale, 1929. The "Pulchra Complex" 1998 updated
The group of Australian Recent populations forming the subgenus Cymbiolacca, formerly named the „pulchra Complex“ is revised. Five new valid species are recognized: C. (Cymbiolacca) cracenta McMichael, 1963, C. (Cymbiolacca) complexa Iredale, 1924, C. (Cymbiolacca) houarti Poppe, 1985, C. (Cymbiolacca) moretonensis Bail & Limpus, 1998 and C. (Cymbiolacca) subelongata Bail & Limpus, 1998. Two new subspecies are distinguished: C. (Cymbiolacca) pulchra flindersi ssp. nov. and C. (Cymbiolacca) intruderi rowseorum ssp. nov. The species C. (Cymbiolacca) excelsior Bail & Limpus, 1998 is downgraded to subspecies. The type of C. (Cymbiolacca) pulchra (Sowerby I, 1825) and its locus typicus are defined again.
