Robert,
 
Many thanks for linking to my site.  Your site is extremely useful.
 
A quick question relative to the Norfolk snail fauna.  Is Greenwoodoconcha
a monotypic genus?  At one time I had a small, almost not descript, helical
shell from the old Walter F. Webb material that looked similar to your
illustration, but the data tag just had the locality "New Zealand" with the
basic identification, "Helix sp."    I could not narrow it down to a
correct genus or species.  Is Greenwoodoconcha an endemic genus to Norfolk?
