New records for Bolma girgyllus (Reeve, 1861) are presented based on specimens collected at 165m depth West of Shark Bay, West Australia, and for Bolma recens (Dell, 1967) for specimens collected off Tinina, Balut Island, Mindanao, and off Luzon, Philippines. This is the first record of B. girgyllus in the entire Australian continent, and the southernmost record for the species, extending the previously known southern distribution record from New Caledonia by about three latitudinal degrees. Regarding B. recens, this is the first published record of this species in the Philippines, filling a gap in its extensive geographical range and extending its northern distribution in the Pacific Ocean. As deep-water species with a bentho-pelagic life cycle, it is probable that the present new records of B. girgyllus and B. recens reflect lack of sampling rather than migration; however, more sampling and Museum records analyses are needed to assess more accurate distributions for these turbinids.
