Status. Pontocaspian species, identity uncertain.

Type locality. Northern Caspian Sea.

Distribution. Northern Caspian Sea and Volga Delta ( Logvinenko and Starobogatov 1969).

Taxonomic notes. The species as illustrated by Logvinenko and Starobogatov (1969) is based on a slender shell with highly convex whorls. The same traits are also typical for Pyrgula astrachanica ; in fact, the type of T. vinogradovi could be a juvenile of that species. Moreover, both of them might be synonyms of Turricaspia nossovi Kolesnikov, 1947. Since a part of the type material of the species involved is lacking and some of the taxa are based on incomplete or presumably juvenile specimens, the identities of Pyrgula astrachanica and Turricaspia vinogradovi remain unresolved.

Conservation status. Turricaspia vinogradovi has not been assessed by the IUCN, T. astrachanica is marked as "Data Deficient" ( Vinarski 2011q).
