N2 - Gastropods of the family Pyramidellidae consist of obligate parasites, many of which show some degree of host specificity (Robertson & Mau-Lastovicka, 1979) and can have dramatic impacts on bivalve fisheries and aquaculture (Wilson, Powell & Ray, 1988a; Cumming & Alford, 1994). A number of pyramidellids affect commercial mollusc species, including Turbonilla sp. parasitic on giant clams (Boglio & Lucas, 1997) and Evalea tenuisculpta on abalone (Maguire & Rogers-Bennett, 2013). One species, Boonea impressa , has received particular attention due to its adverse effects on the eastern oyster, Crassostrea virginica (White, Powell & Kitting, 1984; Ward & Langdon, 1986; Wilson, Powell & Ray, 1991).
