Garrigues, B., Swinnen, F. & Ryall, P. (2024). Description of two new species of Coralliophila from São Tomé - Principe and Angola. Xenophora Taxonomy, 42: 29–34. This metadata-only repository record is maintained by the Institute for Molluscan Systematics (IMS), Tenerife, for internal bibliographic documentation, taxonomic reference, and institutional literature management. No publication file is provided through this record. The publication documents the formal description of two new species of Coralliophilinae (Muricidae) from the eastern Atlantic Ocean: Coralliophila gorii Garrigues, Swinnen & Ryall, 2024 from São Tomé and Príncipe, and Coralliophila annysi Garrigues, Swinnen & Ryall, 2024 from Angola. The study provides detailed morphological descriptions, type material data, distributional information, ecological observations, and comparisons with related Atlantic and Caribbean taxa. Particular emphasis is placed on shell morphology, protoconch characters, spiral sculpture, aperture dentition, and other diagnostic features useful for species discrimination within Coralliophila. The work contributes to the understanding of the diversity, taxonomy, and biogeography of Atlantic coral-associated gastropods and provides illustrated documentation of type specimens and comparative material from West Africa.
