Melanopsis constricta nowskaensis Wenz, 1928 View in CoL

Original source.

Wenz 1928a: 120.

Type horizon.

Cernikian, Pliocene.

Type locality.

"Novska (Bukovica)" ( Brusina 1897: 7), Croatia.

Types.

Milan et al. (1974: 88) indicated a holotype, but it is uncertain whether the specimen was the only one Brusina had at hand when describing M. [ constricta ] subcostata (holotype by monotypy, Art. 73.1.2). The specimen is stored in the Croatian Natural History Museum, Zagreb, coll. no. 2993-639.

Remarks.

Replacement name for Melanopsis constricta subcostata Brusina, 1897, non Melanopsis subcostata d’Orbigny, 1850. The name " novskaensis " as mentioned in Wenz (1929: 2696) is an incorrect subsequent spelling.
