Discussion. This species was introduced by Švagrovský 1954 as Seila ( Seila) conitesta on page 32 of the Slovak part of his paper but was named Seila ( Seila) conica on page 62 in the German part of the paper. In Švagrovský (1971: 333) he referred to Seila ( Seila) conitesta and thereby fixed it the correct original spelling as first reviser. Thus, Seila ( Seila) conica is an unavailable name according to ICZN 1999 Article 24.2.3. Already Švagrovský (1971: 333) recognized that this species is based on juvenile shells of Pirenella soceni ( Jekelius, 1944) (= Tiaracerithium pictum (de Basterot, 1825) ].
