Original source.

Type horizon.
Pannonian, zone D, late Miocene.
Type locality.
"Kottingbrunn [...] Ziegelei a" ( Handmann 1882: 558), Austria.
Remarks.
Replacement name for the alleged junior homonym Melanopsis affinis Handmann, 1882, "non Férussac, 1823". The latter name is, however, unavailable from Férussac (1823) but was introduced validly by Pallary (1916), who referred to an illustration in Férussac (1823) (see discussion of Melanopsis affinis ). This makes Melanopsis subaffinis an objective synonym of Melanopsis affinis Handmann, 1882 and Melanopsis affinis Pallary, 1916 a junior homonym of Melanopsis affinis Handmann, 1882. Melanopsis subaffinis was considered as a junior synonym of Melanopsis bouei by Wenz (1929: 2681).
