Kimberleymelon tealei is a species of air-breathing land snail, a terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusk in the family Camaenidae.
[1] The generic name Kimberleymelon consists of "Kimberley" which is a region in Western Australia, and the suffix "-melon" which is from the Greek language meaning melon, the fleshy fruit of the family Cucurbitaceae, a reference to the globular shape of the shell.
[1] The specific name "tealei" is in honor of Roy Teale, the malacologist who collected the holotype of this species.
[1] The type locality of Kimberleymelon tealei is Middle Osborn Island, Bonaparte Archipelago in north-western Kimberley, Western Australia.
[1] The shell is of trochiform shape, high-spired and has a closed umbilicus.
