is shown. Entries in red are new ones not published in Geiger (2000), entries in green are from the Australian Museum Sydney. First the specimen records are given, sorted by country/larger area in a general North-South and East-West organization. Below the specimen and range data from the literature are given. All specimens from DLG collection now in SBMNH.
The notation the locality data is as follows: (Collection-Acronyms Collection-Number: number-of-specimens). The term "complete" indicates preserved animals.

 

NEW CALEDONIA: (BMNH 1919.12.31.19, 1: lectotype). Whether the locality indications are accurate is currently being debated. Haliotis crebrisculpta may be a misplaced specimen of H. squamosa from Madagascar.
