Family MELONGENIDAE Gill, 1871 View in CoL [1854]

fulva, Pyrula – Deshayes, 1832b: 422-424, 440, 523, pl. 2, fig. 5. — Type locality: Sunda Strait, Indonesia; Bélanger. — Type age: Recent. — Current status: synonym of Volegalea cochlidium (Linnaeus, 1758) [ Murex ] (MolluscaBase).

globatus, Fusus –Deshayes, 1864-DescrCoqFoss: 83, pl. 83, figs 21- 22; 1865-DescrCoqFoss: 288. — Type localities: Auvers-sur-Oise, Valmondois, Mary-sur-Marne, Jaignes, Betz & Le Fayel. — Type age: Eocene (Bartonian). — Type material: UCBL-EM 32755, syntype from Le Fayel. — Current status: Sycostoma globatum (Deshayes, 1864) ( Le Renard & Pacaud 1995: 116; Snyder 2022: 92).

muricoides , Fusus – Deshayes, 1835-DescrCoqFoss: 561-562, 38, pl. 71, figs 3-4; 1865-DescrCoqFoss: 285. — Type localities: Thiverval-Grignon, Beynes, Mouchy-le-Châtel, Parnes & Chaumont-en-Vexin. — Type age: Eocene (Lutetian). — Type material: UCBL-EM 32306, syntype from Beynes. Preoccupies Fusus muricoides C. B. Adams, 1845 View in CoL , now considered to be a synonym of Muricopsis caribbaea (Bartsch & Rehder, 1939) View in CoL . Synonym of Melongena subcarinata (Lamarck, 1803) [ Fusus ] ( Pezant 1910: 11). Solenosteira subcarinata (Lamarck, 1803) View in CoL ( Le Renard 1992: 7; Le Renard & Pacaud 1995: 116; Merle & Pacaud 2002: 7, pl. 1, fig. 5). Pugilina muricoides (Deshayes, 1835) ( Snyder 2022: 136) . — Current status: Lamarckofusus subcarinatus (Lamarck, 1803) ( Vermeij & Lozouet 2012: 82) View in CoL .

obtusus View in CoL , Fusus – Deshayes, 1835-DescrCoqFoss: 567-568, 41, pl. 77, figs 5-6; 1865-DescrCoqFoss: 278-279. — Type locality: La Chapelle-en-Serval. — Type age: Eocene (Bartonian). — Type material: UCBL-EM 32828, syntype. Pugilina palissyi Pezant, 1908 View in CoL [ Melongena View in CoL ], was new species based on Fusus subcarinatus Lamarck, 1803 , sensu Deshayes, 1835 (Deshayes 1835: 565, pl. 77, fig. 7-14), non Lamarck, 1803, is thus a junior synonym of Fusus obtusus Deshayes, 1835 . Preoccupies F. obtusus G. B. Sowerby II, 1880 , a synonym of Colus View in CoL islandicus (Mohr, 1786) View in CoL [ Murex View in CoL ] [now Colidae View in CoL ]. Synonym of Melongena subcarinata (Lamarck, 1803) [ Fusus ] ( Snyder 2022: 143). — Current status: Pugilina obtusa (Deshayes, 1835) (Pacaud herein).
