parisiensis , Conus – Deshayes, 1865-DescrCoqFoss: 418. — Type localities: Parnes, Mouchy-le-Châtel, Chaussy & Liancourt-Saint-Pierre. — Type age: Eocene (Lutetian). New species based on Conus antediluvianus Bruguière, 1791 , of Deshayes, 1835, non Bruguière, 1792. Deshayes cited his earlier treatment (1835-DescrCoqFoss: 729-730, pl. 98, figs 13-14), which he had interpreted as Conus antediluvianus Bruguière, 1792 . Bruguière’s species was actually from the Tortonian Pliocene of Italy. Janssen et al. (2014) filed a petition with the ICZN, and it agreed to set aside an earlier lectotype designation of Bruguière’s species of a specimen from the Paris Basin and to designate a new neotype from Italy, thus preserving the Deshayes Paris Basin species name (ICZN Opinion 2394, 2017). Conus lamarckii F. E. Edwards, 1856 ( Edwards 1856: 194-195, pl. 25, fig. 3a-c), was proposed for similar Eocene material from England. However, it is a junior homonym of C. lamarckii Kiener, 1849 . — Current status: Conilithes parisiensis (Deshayes, 1865) ( Tracey & Todd 1996: 48; Tucker & Tenorio 2009: 137).

acutangulus , Conus – Deshayes, 1833e: 127. Misattributed to Deshayes, this was originally proposed by Lamarck, 1810, a living Indo-Pacific species, in 1833 misused for a Miocene fossil from Austria.
