Three new species, Cerodrillia girardi, Brachycythara barbarae, and Granoturris presleyi are described primarily from collections taken in the eastern Gulf of Mexico, and are compared with other related species. Daphnella margaretae is described from south Florida. Daphnella retifera Dall, D. margaretae, and D. bartschi Dall, a closely related species from the tropical eastern Pacific, are assigned to the subgenus Paradaphne Laseron, previously known only from the Indo-Pacific.
