Strong, Ellen E., Garner, Jeffrey T., Johnson, Paul D. & Whelan, Nathan V., 2022, A systematic revision of the genus Juga from fresh waters of the Pacific Northwest, USA (Cerithioidea, Semisulcospiridae), European Journal of Taxonomy 848, pp. 1-97 : 81

Goniobasis columbiensis Whiteaves, 1905

Frest & Johannes (2010) treated this nominal species elsewhere in their text but omitted it from their list of taxa incorrectly assigned to Juga . It was described from “headwaters of the Columbia River, at Upper Columbia Lake, in the East Kootenay District of British Columbia ” ( Whiteaves 1905: 61–62, pl. 2 figs 11–12). Attempts to recollect it at the type locality and nearby sites were unsuccessful ( Frest & Johannes 2010), and it is known only from the type material ( Fig. 27A ). It is considered a mislocalized specimen of the eastern North American pleurocerid, Elimia livescens (Menke, 1830) ( Walker 1918; Goodrich 1937, 1942; LaRocque 1953; Frest & Johannes 2010).
