New Caledonia area, 200–730 m, lv at 304– 324 m. Diagnosis. A tall, almost lenticular Ilanga species with a depressed spire, convex whorls and a canaliculate suture, a subangulate periphery, 5 spiral cords on first whorl, no subsutural pleats, very broad angulate umbilicus with a spiral cord at rim, with about 20 axial pleats around umbilicus, up to 8–10 smooth thin spiral cords inside. Description. Shell: Rather tall for genus (H up to 6.4 mm, W up to 12.3 mm), much wider than high, lenticular, conical to slightly coeloconoidal, glossy; spire depressed, height 0.49×to 0.56×width, about 1.35×to 1.94×aperture height; periphery subangulate; umbilicus very broad and deep. Protoconch ca. 380 μm wide, 1.25 whorls, rounded, with 3 thin, evenly spaced spiral cords and with a straight, slightly expanded terminal lip. Teleoconch up to 4.8 convex whorls with a weak subsutural ramp on first whorls but vanishing on last whorls; early teleoconch whorls with 4–5 smooth spiral cords, quickly vanishing; last whorls smooth with poorly visible spiral threads near periphery. Suture canaliculate. First teleoconch whorl convex, with 5 smooth spiral cords, P2-3-4-5 appearing immediately after protoconch, P1 appearing at half whorl; P2 strongest, situated at edge of subangulate subsutural ramp; thin axial threads between cords; P3, P4 and P5 vanishing at end of the whorl. On second whorl, P1 and P2 vanishing at begin of whorl; subsutural ramp weakening, suture strongly canaliculate; axial threads no longer visible, no subsutural pleats; surface nearly smooth with faint growth lines. On third whorl, narrow translucent subsutural spiral band appearing. Last whorls smooth, except of some faint, barely visible, spiral cords on periphery. Aperture rounded triangular; peristome incomplete; outer and inner lip thin; inner lip thicker against umbilical rim. Base moderately convex, smooth on outer part, with about 20 axial pleats around umbilicus on inner part, some pleats occasionally vanishing near end of whorl; thin, weak spiral cord bordering umbilical rim. Umbilicus broad (diameter 25–35% of shell width), central, with perspective to apex, with angulate rim, with vertical to slightly concave wall, up to 8–10 smooth thin spiral cords inside, gathered in adapical part when less numerous, without axial threads; axial pleats visible in perspective on adapical whorls. Colour: Teleoconch nacreous white, with 3 bands; adapical and abapical bands with more or less regular, sometimes poorly marked, brownish orange patches; median band with thinner patches or nearly uniformly white; base with weak brownish patches on external half. Operculum: Corneous, multispiral with central nucleus, light brown. Remarks. As highlighted by the DNA study, I. boreia n. sp. is sister to I. mesembrine, but the latter has an almost conical (not coeloconoidal) shell shape, less convex whorls with an impressed (not strongly canaliculate) suture and axial pleats around the umbilicus (instead of pleats mainly on adapical whorls inside the umbilicus), Etymology. From the North (Ancient Greek: βόρειος, α, ον)—after the location of the type locality in northwestern New Caledonia
