Helicarionidae sp. ‘QQsp4’

Te Kou Snail (Helicarionidae sp.)  

The Te Kou Snail is an undescribed species known only from empty shells that were collected in 2005 and 2010 in the upper regions of Takuvaine and Te Kou, two of the mountains in central Rarotonga, Cook Islands.

The species is very likely already extinct now.
