Remarks.
D’Orbigny (1850) considered Melanopsis rugosa Matheron, 1842 a Melania and the species name a secondary homonym of Melania rugosa Lea, 1842. However, Matheron’s species was published earlier (August 1842 vs. November/December 1842; for details on publication dates of Matheron’s work see note at the beginning of the Reference section). Melania subrugosa is thus a junior objective synonym of Melanopsis rugosa Matheron, 1842.
