Dear Scott & Volute lovers,

I never described a Benthovoluta, so this is a mistake from I don't know
where from.

Amoria rinkensi is a rare valid species from the northwestern Australian
Shelf, where it lives at depths from 300 to 600 m. A few specimen will  be
figured in the upcoming Iconography on the genus Amoria (publication date
May this year).
