[invalid]

Melanopsis lanzaeana f. rugosa Brusina, 1897 [invalid]

Original source.

Brusina 1897: 12.

Type horizon.

Langhian, middle Miocene.

Type locality.

“Ribarić”, Croatia.

Types.

Milan et al. (1974: 94) indicated a holotype, but it is uncertain whether the specimen is part of the original type series and whether it 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. 2983-629.

Remarks.

Junior homonym of Melanopsis rugosa Matheron, 1842. Neubauer et al. (2011: 205) considered the taxon as a junior synonym of Melanopsis lanzaeana Brusina, 1874.
