Type horizon.

Messinian, late Miocene.

Type locality.

Remarks.

Introduced for " Melanopsis dufourii var. a" in Capellini, 1880. Pallary used multiple original spellings (" capelliniana ", " capelliana ") but according to 32.5.1 the name must be capelliniana . Wenz (1929: 2785) considered Capellini’s material synonymous with Melanopsis narzolina Manzoni, 1870.
