Abstract

In this study, the extant Doxanderina species are addressed. Species contained within Doxander are examined based on type material, and a new species from Queensland is recognised. Comparisons are made based on morphology. This revision recognises six species in the Doxander complex: D. campbellii, D. entropi, D. japonicus, D. queenslandicus nov. sp, D. operosus, and D. vittatus. Doxander queenslandicus is most similar to D. vittatus from Indonesia, but differs in the body whorl being more dorso-laterally compressed, having a terminal point of the anterior canal which does not extend past the outer lip as in D. vittatus, and the presence of a dorsal knob on the shoulder of D. queenslandicus.
