Andrusovia dybowskii View in CoL Brusina in Westerlund, 1902b

*1902b Andrusovia Dybowskii Westerlund: 133.

? 2000 Andrusovia dybowskii Brusina in Westerlund, 1903. - Starobogatov: 39, fig. 1A.

2016 Andrusovia dybowskii Brusina in Westerlund, 1903. - Vinarski and Kantor: 214.

Status. Accepted Pontocaspian species.

Type locality. Caspian Sea (no details).

Distribution. Middle and southern Caspian Sea ( Starobogatov 2000).

Taxonomic notes. Apparently, Brusina considered both the more conical and flatter shells ("conoidea vel discoidea") to belong to a single species. Starobogatov (2000) in turn referred only the flat type to as Andrusovia dybowskii and considered the conical ones to belong to separate species ( A. brusinai and A. marina ). The recently rediscovered type material represents the conico-globular type and is currently subject of study by V. Anistratenko and collaegues.

Conservation status. Not assessed.
