Description
The genus Samoana was defined by American malacologist Henry Augustus Pilsbry in Manual of Conchology in 1909:[1]
| “ | The shell is very openly umbilicate, dextral or sinistral, with flatly reflexed lip and no teeth. Type P. canalis. Samoan Is., species 53 to 58. | ” |
In 1909, Pilsbry assigned six species to the genus Samoana.[1]
