Original source.
Pallary 1916: 80.
Type horizon.
Chattian, Oligocene.
Type locality.
"Dax. St-Geours, Abesse" ( Grateloup 1840: captions of the plate "Mollusques terrestres et fluviatiles fossiles de Dax"), France.
Remarks.
Introduced for Melania costata sensu Grateloup, 1840, for which d’Orbigny (1852) had already introduced Melanopsis nereis as new name. Thus, Melanopsis conspicua is a junior objective synonym of Melanopsis nereis . Moreover, it is a junior secondary homonym of Lyrcaea conspicua Brusina, 1897.
