Discussion. Steininger (1973) illustrated a poorly preserved Early Miocene specimen in apical view (SL: 15 mm, MD: 15 mm), which tentatively might be conspecific with Sinum patulum as revised by Robba et al. (2016). This species is widespread in coeval deposits in the northeastern Atlantic and Proto-Mediterranean Sea. We have not been able to trace the specimen. A second specimen was described by Răileanu & Negulescu (1964) from the Eggenburgian of the Transylvanian Basin in Romania. The illustration does not allow a clear identification, and we list the record here only for completeness.

Distribution in Central Paratethys. Eggenburgian (Early Miocene): North Alpine Foreland Basin: Gernergraben, Kaltenbachgraben ( Germany) ( Steininger 1973).? Transylvanian Basin: Coruş ( Romania) ( Răileanu & Negulescu 1964)
