Keywords: Fauna, Marine, Mollusca, Rockpool, Taxonomy

Abstract: A discussion on the similarity between Actaeonia corrugata and Cenia (Actaeonia) cocksii is presented. The author gives evidence to support his claim that A. corrugata is an immature stage of C. cocksii and not a different species as hitherto thought.
