Species of the genus Clavus of the conoidean family Drilliidae that occur in the littoral and shallow waters of New Caledonia are here revised. This study is based primarily on recent expedition material from the Institut de Recherche pour le Développement (New Caledonia) and Muséum National d'Histoire Naturelle (France). A total of 22 species is recorded, of which eight are described as new. New species: Clavus boucheti, Clavus delphineae, Clavus virginieae, Clavus picoides, Clavus squamiferus, Clavus devexistriatus, Clavus hylikos, Clavus maestratii; New synonyms: Tylotiella Habe, 1958 = Clavus; Clavus leforestieri Hervier, 1896 = Pleurotoma obliquicostata Reeve, 1845; Pleurotoma mariei Crosse, 1869 = Pleurotoma lamberti Montrouzier, 1860; Clavus mighelsi Kay, 1979, new name for Pleurotoma acuminata Mighels, 1845, non J. Sowerby, 1816, was misidentified by Kay 1979; the lectotype of P. acuminata Mighels, 1845, is mangeliine. Clavus mighelsi sensu Kay 1979, is a synonym of Pleurotoma humilis E. A. Smith, 1879. It is suggested that Pleurotoma pulchella Reeve, 1845, sometimes treated as an Indo-Pacific species, may be a senior synonym of Fenimorea halidorema Schwengel, 1940, from the tropical western Atlantic. Nomen dubium: Pleurotoma mediocris Deshayes, 1863.
对新喀里多尼亚沿海和浅水区钻螺科梭螺属的物种进行了修订。本研究主要基于法国国家科研中心（新喀里多尼亚）和法国国家自然历史博物馆近期考察采集的标本。共记录了22个物种，其中8个被描述为新物种。新物种：布氏梭螺、德尔菲娜梭螺、弗吉尼亚梭螺、皮氏梭螺、鳞纹梭螺、凸纹梭螺、希利科斯梭螺、马斯特拉蒂梭螺；新异名：哈贝1958年建立的泰勒梭螺属 = 梭螺属；埃尔维耶1896年命名的勒福雷斯特梭螺 = 里夫1845年命名的斜肋笋螺；克罗斯1869年命名的玛丽笋螺 = 蒙鲁齐埃1860年命名的兰伯蒂笋螺；凯1979年将米格尔斯1845年命名的尖笋螺（非J. 索尔比1816年命名者）误鉴定为米氏梭螺，米格尔斯1845年尖笋螺的选模标本为芒果螺亚科的种类。凯1979年所指的米氏梭螺是E. A. 史密斯1879年命名的谦逊笋螺的异名。有人认为，里夫1845年命名的美丽笋螺有时被视为印度 - 太平洋地区的物种，可能是来自热带西大西洋的施温格尔1940年命名的哈利多雷马芬尼螺的次异名。存疑名称：德夏耶斯1863年命名的中等笋螺。
