Identification:  The shell of this species is elongate, smooth and rosy pink apically, shading to white abapically. (Kay, 1979) Natural history:  According to Kay (1979), shells of Odostomia rosacea are occasionally found in beach drift on Kauai. We've only seen one young shell on Maui. Distribution:  Maui and Kauai. Taxonomic notes:  This species is probably also listed in Severns, 2011 as Odostomia sp. 1 (in our opinion, the illustrated shell is a young O. rosacea).
