Description:
On the cruises 3 and 15 of R. V. "Meteor" a number of benthic abyssal gastropods has been collected. Two of the species found in these samples belong to the subgenus Theta CLARKE, 1959 of the genus Pleurotomella. One of the species is Pleurotomella (Theta) lyronuclea CLARKE, 1959, hitherto only known by one single specimen from off Bermuda; CLARKE's description is completed, based on the additional specimens now available. The other one is a new species named Pl. (Theta) bathyiberica, which is described and photographed.
