Family BULIMULIDAE Tryon, 1867

corneus , Bulimus – Deshayes, 1835b: 164–165, pl. 19, figs 11-12, non Menke, 1830; 1838-HistNatAnim2: 247; 1843-HistNatAnim3: 357. — Type locality: “ Peloponnese Peninsula, Greece ”. — Type age: Recent. — Type material: MNHN-IM-2000-38630, holotype (figured by Bank & Menkhorst, 1992: fig. 23). Both names preoccupy B. corneus I. Lea , 1838, which is a synonym of Bulimus buenavistensis Pilsbry, 1897 . Belongs to Naesiotis, therefore locality must be wrong ( Bank & Menkhorst 1992: 116) and it must be from the Americas. Buliminus graecus Beck, 1837 (Beck 1837: 72) is a replacement name. — Current status: Naesiotus graecus (Beck, 1837) .

gyrina , Helix – Deshayes, 1850-HistNatTerrFluv1: 334-335; 1851-HistNatTerrFluv: 12, pl. 63B, fig. 4. — Type locality: Brazil. — Type age: Recent. — Type material:MNHN-IM-2000-28153, syntype. — Current status: Oxychona gyrina (Deshayes, 1850) ( Simone 2006: 147) .

lemniscatus , Bulimus – Deshayes, 1838-HistNatAnim2: 271-272; 1843-HistNatAnim3: 366. — Type locality: Peru ; Cuming. — Type age: Recent. — Current status: Bostryx lemniscatus (Deshayes, 1838) ( Ramírez et al. 2003: 278) .

major, Bulimus – Deshayes, 1851-HistNatTerrFluv2(2): 121-122, 21, pl. 158, figs 1-2, non Bulimus radiatus major Charpentier, 1837 , nec B. montanus major Rossmaessler, 1837 . — Type locality: none given. — Type age: Recent. — Current status: taxon inquirendum.

grandis , Bulimus – Rowson (2007: 439) synonymized this name, credited to “Deshayes, in Férussac”, with Edentulina ovoidea (Bruguière, 1789) [ Bulimus ]. However, this was merely an asserted misuse of Bulimus grandis (L. Pfeiffer, 1846) [ Pupa ] by Deshayes (1851-HistNatTerrFluv2: 101-102, 20, pl. 144, figs 1-2).
