Treatment

Genus Gibbula Risso, 1826 View in CoL

Type species

Trochus magus Linnaeus, 1758 View in CoL (subsequent designation, Herrmannsen 1847: 473), Recent, NE Atlantic and Mediterranean.

Remarks

Gibbula s. lat. has been shown to be a paraphyletic taxon ( Uribe et al. 2016; Affenzeller et al. 2017) and it is unlikely that the species described below and the South African species of ‘ Gibbula ’, to which it is undoubtedly related, in fact belong to Gibbula s. str. This is a matter undergoing further investigation and the referral of this new taxon to Gibbula is a temporary measure.
