The gastropod family Strombidae has sparked the recent interest of taxonomists as early revisions of the family are re-examined, with a plethora of new species and genera being described. This has brought a greater understanding of the level of diversity within the family, which has assisted in conceptualizing its evolutionary intergeneric relationships. However, gaps in the revisions remain. This paper examines the extant members of the genus Gibberulus after half a century of neglect. After examination of type material and original descriptions, the species are recircumscribed, and a new species, G. dekkersi, new species, is presented, bringing the total number of species in the genus to four. In addition, information of the geographic range of each species is provided. We suggest that, as further revisions of the Strombidae are conducted, particularly of those species with large fragmented distributions, a greater diversity of species will be found and described.

腹足动物科Strombidae最近引起了分类学家的兴趣，因为重新检查了该科的早期修订版本，描述了大量新物种和属。这使人们对科内的多样性水平有了更深入的了解，这有助于对其进化的属间关系进行概念化。然而，修订中的差距仍然存在。本文考察了半个世纪以来被忽视的Gibberulus属的现存成员。在检查了模型材料和原始描述后，该物种被重新界定，一个新物种G. dekkersi, 新物种, 出现, 使该属中的物种总数达到四个。此外，还提供了每个物种的地理范围信息。我们建议，随着对 Strombidae 的进一步修订，特别是那些分布广泛的物种，将发现和描述更大的物种多样性。
