Abstract / Introduction / Summary:

A species of pyramidellid mollusk was newly recorded from Miyazaki Prefecture: Odostomella cf. rhodocephala Pilsbry, 1917. The first living specimen was collected from the coralline algal bed on a wavy rocky shore. It differs from the previously known congeneric species in the size with six whorls and the soft body with numerous white spots. Eight more specimens were collected from sediments accumulated on the rocky shore.
