Haliotis queketti, common name Quekett's abalone, is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Haliotidae, the abalone.

Taxonomy Halitosis quekketi was first formally described in 1910 as Haliotis (Padollus) queketti by the English malacologist Edgar Albert Smith with the type locality given as Isezela in Natal. This species is placed in the nominate subgenus of Haliotis rather than in the subgenusPadollus in which Smith originally classified it. The specific name honours the conchologist John Frederick Whitlie Quekett, curator of the Durban Museum of Natural History, who sent Smith the type of this species.

Description The size of the shell varies between 25 mm and 45 mm. (Original description by E.A. Smith) "The depressed shell has an ovate shape with the raised ridge parallel to the row of holes only slightly raised. The upper surface exhibits numerous spiral lirae, minutely squamose through the close elevated lines of growth. The four open holes are rather prominent. The space between the holes and the outer margin is concave or channeled. The color of the shell is brownish-white with radiating blood-red streaks, narrow at the suture and gradually widening outwards.
