Brusina 1897: 12, pl. 5, fig. 6.

“Miočić”, Croatia.

Types.

Milan et al. (1974: 99) indicated a holotype, but it is uncertain whether the specimen was the only one Brusina had at hand (holotype by monotypy, Art. 73.1.2). The specimen is stored in the Croatian Natural History Museum, Zagreb, coll. no. 2981-627/2.

Remarks.

Junior homonym of Melanopsis inconstans costulata Brusina, 1874 (see Note 1). Currently considered as a junior synonym of Melanopsis visianiana Brusina, 1874 ( Neubauer et al. 2016b: 25).
