Resumo
The first record of the genus Spiricella Rang & Des Moulins, 1828 is given for the Recent western Atlantic. Until now considered a monospecific genus, the Spiricella specimens from Abaco Island, Bahamas, Caribbean, are consistently different from the Recent and fossil shells from the eastern Atlantic and West Africa. Despite the paucity of morphological shell features typical for the genus, we consider these Caribbean shells a distinct specific taxon; Spiricella redferni nov. sp. The genus continues as elusive as ever, and despite this exciting new record and the great extension in geographical range for the genus, we still know nothing of the animal to which these shells belong, nor its ecology.
