Type locality. Gainfarn ( Austria), Vienna Basin .

Type stratum. Silt sand of the Baden Formation.

Age. Middle Miocene, middle Badenian (late Langhian).

Etymology. In honor of Iris Feichtinger (NHMW, Vienna, Austria), in recognition of her contributions to Miocene ichthyology.

Diagnosis. ‘ Clavatula ’ species of moderately large size, solid, stout fusiform shell with tripartite sculpture on early teleoconch whorls, later whorls with broad raised subsutural collar, narrow subsutural ramp, mid-whorl cord disappears about fifth whorl, suprasutural cord tuberculate, last whorl with strong but irregular tuberculate spiral sculpture, outer lip lirate within, siphonal canal moderately long.

Description. Shell moderately large, solid, stout fusiform with high spire; apical angle ~37–40°. Protoconch not preserved. Teleoconch of ten whorls. Early teleoconch whorls flat-sided with tripartite sculpture; prominent, flat subsutural cord, suprasutural cord with close-set, prominent beads, separated by narrow interspace with finely beaded central cord. Later whorls with broad, raised subsutural collar, bearing subobsolete, widely spaced, open spinous tubercles; deeply concave mid-portion, fine beaded cord disappears. Suprasutural cord with prominent opisthocline tubercles. Entire shells surface covered by numerous secondary spiral cords also overriding tubercles. Suture narrowly incised, running below beads. Last whorl 60% of total height; subsutural collar broad, bearing low, open spines just below suture, subsutural ramp narrow, deeply concave. Shoulder prominent, tubercular, mid-whorl weakly convex, moderately angled at peribasal cord. Base strongly constricted. Siphonal fasciole weakly swollen, twisted. Sculpture below ramp of strengthened shoulder and peribasal cords, with irregular, flattened, weakly tubercular cords of primary to tertiary strength. Aperture moderately wide, pyriform. Outer lip not thickened, with about 8–12 lirae deep within. Anal sinus deep, moderately wide, asymmetrically V-shaped, with apex below subsutural collar. Siphonal canal moderately long, narrow, straight to slightly deflected to left, without notch at tip. Columella excavated in upper third, weakly twisted below, smooth. Columellar and parietal callus strongly thickened, sharply delimited, forming broad callus rim and narrow pseudumbilical chink.

Discussion. This species is reminiscent of ‘ Clavatula ’ sophiae ( Hoernes & Auinger, 1891) , but differs in its stouter outline and shorter siphonal canal. Moreover, ‘ C. ’ sophiae lacks a prominent central beaded spiral cord on early teleoconch whorls, and its subsutural spiral cord has beads on early whorls, but is smooth in ‘ C. ’ irisae. ‘ Clavatula ’ olgae ( Hoernes & Auinger, 1891) has a comparable profile of the last whorl with a strong shoulder angulation, but differs clearly in its much higher spire and slender outline. ‘ Clavatula ’ vitalisi Strausz, 1955 is reminiscent of ‘ C. ’ irisae in general shape, but is distinguished by its slightly wider apical angle and the cancellate sculpture on the suprasutural cord. ‘ Clavatula ’ hirmetzli Kovács & Vicián, 2021 has an even stouter outline, coarser sculpture on the base, and lacks lirae inside the aperture.

Paleoenvironment. The common occurrence at Gainfarn and Enzesfeld suggests a preference for inner neritic environments with sea grass meadows ( Zuschin et al. 2007).

Distribution in Central Paratethys. Badenian (middle Miocene): Vienna Basin: Gainfarn, Enzesfeld ( Austria) (hoc opus); Krka Basin: Dolenja Brezovica in Gorenja Stara vas ( Slovenia) ( Mikuž 1998).
