초록
Two species of gastropods, Melanella flexuosa (A. Adams) and Similiphora similior (Bouchet & Guillemot) from Dokdo, are marking the new Korean molluscan fauna. M. flexuosa is characterized by round and swollen whorls with slightly leftward curvature near the apex and the aperture's ventrally thickened and raised outer lip. S. similior features uniformly sized longitudinal granules and evenly spaced intercostals with a two-tone coloration. Diagnoses and color plates are provided in this study.
