I see I have to move this species on my website from extinct in the wild to extinct. Somehow I've missed it. Does anyone know of an image of this species? How it looked like?

I would love the article that describes this species: Crampton, Henry E. & Cooke, C. Montague Jr. (1953). New species of Partula from southeastern Polynesia. Occasional Papers of Bernice P. Bishop Museum, 21(8): 135-160. It is mentioned at: hbs.bishopmuseum.org/pubs-online/bmop.html, where many are online, but sadly not this one. And does anyone know where the last one died in captivity? Strange that there is nothing to find about that online, as it is a really recent extinction (2002).... Peter |

Cowie et al. 2017 list this species as Extinct in the Wild, and cite Gerlach's Icons of Evolution (2016). Is this an error? |
