Partula taeniata, common name the Moorean viviparous tree snail, is a species of terrestrial gastropod in the Partulidae family. It is endemic to French Polynesia.[1]
This species was considered to be extinct in the wild, but intensive field surveys have recently detected surviving wild populations.[2]
