Recent shelled mollusks were trawled from deep water on four guyots in the Mid-Pacific Mountains and were dredged from shallow waters on Nero Bank and the lee shelf of Kure Island in Hawaii. Seven species of mollusks, six of which are new, have been identified from the deep waters on the guyots : two are trochids, Calliotropis hataii n. sp., and C. abyssicola n. sp., three are turrids, Comitas powelli n. sp., Pleurotomella dubia Schepman and P. allisoni n. sp., one is a bullid, Bulla argoblysis n. sp., and one a scaphopod, Dentalium mediopacificensis n. sp. Five of the seven species are identical or closely related to Indo-Pacific forms, one belongs to a small but cosmopolitan group, one is related to a species living near the Galapagos Islands in the eastern Pacific. Nine species of mollusks are identified from Nero Bank and 41 from Kure's shelf, one being new. A total of 101 species are listed as occurring on these two sites and the Kure beaches and lagoon. More than one-third of the total listed appear to be endemic to Hawaii.
