Original source.
Swainson 1840: 199, 341.
Original classification.
Subgenus of Melania .
Remarks.
No originally included species. Junior homonym of Melanella Bowdich, 1822. Fischer (1885: 701) introduced Amphimelania as replacement name, which is invalid, too, because it is a junior objective synonym of Holandriana , with the same type species.
