Classification of the Mollusca :A classification of worldwide Mollusca. pp.166-167. Oliva fulgurator Röding, 1798 - Aruba, 57mm - This intertidal sand-dweller is limited to the southern Caribbean. Oliva miniacea Röding, 1798 - Philippines, 89mm - A fairly sizable specimen of this common Indo-Pacific species. A number of color forms can be found throughout the range of the species.
Oliva porphyria Linné, 1758 - Mexico, 101mm - The largest and most well-known of the Oliva species. The species ranges from Panama up into Mexico. Specimens larger than 5 inches have been found and are much sought-after by collectors. Oliva reticularis bollingi Clench, 1934 - Cuba, 46mm - specimens with brown banding have been given this form name. It is one of many reticularis-morphs that can be found throughout the Caribbean. Oliva reticularis goajira Petuch & Sargent, 1986 - Colombia, 44-55mm - one of many regional forms in the reticularis complex. The color pattern and mauve tint inside the aperture is characteristic of this subspecies, considered by some to be only a form.
Oliva richerti Kay, 1979 - Hawaii, 28-31mm - one of the truly rare species of the genus, known only from ± 200 meters of water off Oahu.

Oliva sairosa Kilburn, 1978 - Mozambique, 30-35mm - The species has dark purple color inside the aperture. Oliva (Strephona) tisiphona Duclos, 1844 - Colombia, 40mm - An odd orange color form. Related to the reticularis complex of Olives. O. oblonga is a synonym.

Amalda H. & A. Adams, 1853: 148. Type species (s.d. Vokes, 1939): Ancillaria tankervillianus Sow. [sic] = Ancillaria tankervillii Swainson, 1825; Vaught, 1989: 53 [Ancillinae]; Pacaud & Le Renard, 1995: 166 [Ancillinae], Sandella Gray, 1857, Subgenus: BARYSPIRA Fischer, 1883, Gamaspira Olsson, 1956, Amalda (Baryspira); Vaught, 1989: 53 [Ancillinae]; Pacaud & Le Renard, 1995: 166 [Ancillinae].

Amalda aureomarginata Kilburn & Bouchet, 1988 - New Caledonia, 28mm - Discovered during deep-water research. The species is found at depths up to 600 meters of water. It has only been recorded from off of southern New Caledonia. Amalda contusa (Reeve, 1864) - South Africa, 32mm - Taken by scuba divers in the remote Transeki Region. The flush of purple color on the spire is characteristic of the species.
Amalda fuscolingua Kilburn & Bouchet, 1988 - New Caledonia, 29mm;- A rare species restricted to deepwater off southern New Caledonia. The illustrated specimens are from ± 400 meters of water. Amalda vernedei heerlari van Pel, 1989 - Arafura Sea, 78mm - trawled in 300 meters of water. There has been much speculation as the the identity of this species and its relationship to A. hilgendorfi Von Martens and A. vernedei Sowerby. This illustrated shell seems far closer to vernedei than hilgendorfi, the latter which is less inflated and has a characteristic ridge on the spire. Amalda mamillata (Hinds, 1843) - Taiwan, 38mm;- trawled. Indo-Pacific distribution.
Amalda similis (Sowerby, 1859) - Mozambique, 57mm - one of the larger and more beautiful of the Amalda species. This sand-dweller lives at depths accessible by scuba divers.
