Amalda southlandica, is a poorly known species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusc in the family Olividae, the olives. The evaluation of the species remains incomplete, because so far only juveniles have been found. Juvenile specimens of this olive have been found at depths of between 25 and 60 m.
