Abstract
    The Hawaiian Pseudosimnia alisonae n. sp. differs from its Western Pacific congeners by the lack of a sutural band, the stronger development of callus and the shorter and more solid posterior extremity, along with several other subtle characters. Conchological features of genera related to Pseudosimnia SCHILDER, 1927 are assessed and Pseudosimnia hilineata BOZZETTI, 2009, is transferred to Diminovula (n. comb.). Vokesina DOLIN & DOCKERY, 2018, named as a subgenus of Pseudosimnia, is raised to full genus status (n. stat.).
