†
Melanopsis broti Neumayr, 1880
Original source.
Neumayr 1880b
: 295, pl. 1, fig. 29.
Type horizon.
Plio-Pleistocene.
Type locality.
"Zwischen Pylle und Antimachia" [between
Pyli
and
Antimacheia
, Kos Island], Greece.
Remarks
.
Pallary (1925)
and
Wenz (1929)
erroneously referred to it as homonym of "
Melanopsis broti
" Gassies, 1874, which was actually introduced as
Melanopsis brotiana
. The replacement name
Melanopsis cosiana
Pallary, 1925 is thus invalid as it is a junior objective synonym (see also
Willmann 1981
).
