Wesselingh (Naturalis, National Museum of Natural History, Leiden), a leading expert on Cenozoic freshwater mollusks. Type locality. Vladychen' (= Impuţita) near Izmayil, Odessa , Ukraine . Age. Dacian (= middle Zanclean). Lectotype . No holotype was designated in the original publication; Taboyakova (1964 , p. 43) designated the specimen illustrated in Macarovici (1940 , pl. 5, fig. 72) as lectotype . Discussion. As Macarovici introduced this taxon as variety before 1961 , it is available as species-group name ( ICZN 1999 , Article 45.6.4). Here again the rule "difference in spelling of generic names" ( ICZN 1999 , Article 57.5) applies and Viviparus incerta [wrong gender] Macarovici, 1940 is a primary homonym of Vivipara incerta Fuchs, 1877 [= Viviparus incertus ].
