Dalhousia Ponder, Colgan, Terzis, S. A. Clark & A. C. Miller, 1996 (junior homonym of Dalhousia McIntosh, 1885 (Annelida)) · Caldicochlea is a genus of freshwater molluscs in the family, Tateidae,[1] endemic to the mound springs of the Great Artesian Basin.

[2] The genus name was published in 1997 by Winston Ponder[3] to replace the preoccupied name Dalhousia given in 1996 to this genus by Ponder, Colgan, Terzis, Clark & Miller.
