'''''Partula navigatoria''''' is a species of air-breathing, ground-dwelling<ref name=IUCN/> tropical land snail in the family Partulidae.<ref name=WoRMS /> This species has been extinct in the wild since 1992.<ref name=IUCN/>
== Subspecies == There are three subspecies recognized:<ref name=WoRMS/> * ''Partula navigatoria levilineata'' <small>H. E. Crampton, 1956</small> * ''Partula navigatoria navigatoria'' <small>(L. Pfeiffer, 1849)</small> * ''Partula navigatoria radiata'' <small>Pease, 1864</small>
==Distribution== This species was endemic to Ra{{okina}}iātea, French Polynesia, but is now considered extinct in the wild due to predation by introduced rosy wolf snails (''Euglandina rosea''). It may now be impossible to reestablish this species in its native range, due to the presence of the predatory flatworm ''Platydemus manokwari'' which ground-dwelling species such as ''Partula navigatoria'' are susceptible to.<ref name=IUCN/>
