Melanopsis subtilis Pallary, 1920 [invalid]

Original source.

Pallary 1920b: 110.

Type horizon.

Transdanubian, Pannonian, late Miocene.

Type locality.

“Tihany” (Fuchs 1870: 533), Hungary.

Remarks.

Introduced for Melanopsis aquensis sensu Fuchs, 1870, non Grateloup, 1838. Junior homonym of Melanopsis subtilis Brot, 1879. That name was introduced in synonymy but became available from Clessin (1890), who treated it as valid species-group name (see Note 2). Wenz (1929: 2804) considered the taxon as a junior synonym of Melanopsis petrovici Brusina, 1893.
