Cerithium cf lifuense Melville & Standen, 1895
28.7mm

These are found on the seaward reef in sandy channels at about 16m as well as in sand pockets at the base of the steep drop in about 65m. Although somewhat similar in appearance to the variable Cerithium munitum, they live on different parts of the reef and we think should be considered separate.
