Ulskia behningi View in CoL (Logvinenko & Starobogatov, 1969)

*1969 Pyrgula (Ulskia) behningi Logvinenko & Starobogatov: 380, fig. 367(13).

2016 Pyrgula behningi Logvinenko & Starobogatov, 1968. - Vinarski and Kantor: 236.

Status. Pontocaspian species, identity uncertain.

Type locality. Western part of the southern Caspian Sea, in the vicinity of the Kura River mouth, 39°05'N, 49°48'E, 120 m.

Distribution. Type locality only.

Taxonomic notes. The drawings provided by Logvinenko and Starobogatov (1969) sketch a broad and conical shell. As such, it differs from the more elongate and ovoid Ulskia ulskii ( Neubauer et al. 2018). A revision is required to clarify its taxonomic status.

Conservation status. Data Deficient ( Vinarski 2011f).
