† Melania obeloides Tausch, 1886
Original source.
Tausch 1886: 7, pl. 1, figs 16-19.
Type horizon.
Late Santonian-early Campanian, late Cretaceous.
Type locality.
"Csingerthal bei Ajka" [Csinger valley near Ajka], Hungary.
Remarks.
The species was attributed to the genus Esperiana by Bandel and Riedel (1994: 20). That classification was, however, doubted by Neubauer et al. (2016a: 127) based on the large stratigraphic gap between this Cretaceous species and other representatives that appeared not before the late Miocene.
