Puncturella fastigiata ( non A. Adams, 1853)— Martens, 1904: 50. E.A. Smith, 1906: 57. Puncturella capensis Thiele, 1919 in 1912–1919: 164, pl. 19, figs 15, 16. Kilburn, 1978: 448, pl. 9a, b.

Pondoland (off Waterfall Bluff) to False Bay; 70–550 m (living 300–540 m). Notes. There is a possibility that this taxon is synonymous with Puncturella analoga Martens, 1902, which in turn may be a synonym of P. conica (d’Orbigny, 1841) and that there is a single circum-Antarctic species. Pupillaea Gray, 1835. Type species (m.): Fissurella aperta G.B. Sowerby (I), 1825.
