Pallary 1916 : 78. Type horizon. Burdigalian, early Miocene (?). Type locality. "Dax" , France. Remarks. Pallary (1916 , 1920) erroneously treated " parva " as available name attributed to Ferussac (1823) , who solely used the word as descriptive term (Latin "small" ). The name became nevertheless available from Pallary (1916) who associated the name with an illustration in Ferussac (1823 : pl. 8, fig. 5). Cossmann and Peyrot (1918 : 485) considered the taxon as a junior synonym of Melanopsis subbuccinoides d'Orbigny , 1852.
