– under
Thracia
View in CoL
in Blainville’s (1824: 347) article on the Mollusques in the Dictionnaire des sciences naturelles. It then appeared with the same spelling the next year, also as a nomen nudum, in the text of Blainville’s Manuel de malacologie et de conchyliologie (1825: 565), referring to figures in the Manuel ’s as-yet unpublished pl. 76, fig. 6. It was previously thought to have become available when this and the other plates were published in 1827. (It would have not mattered that the plate caption was only a vernacular because it referenced the manuscript scientific name in the earlier text.) However, it is now known that this species first appeared in the caption to a plate by Deshayes published in September 1824, with the spelling
Thracia corbuliformis
, which he later said was an error. However, this original spelling has to prevail (ICZN Code Art. 32). — Current status: this species, native to the Mediterranean, should therefore be known as
Thracia corbuliformis Deshayes, 1824
. This species is discussed, as
T. corbuloidea Blainville
View in CoL
, in Monegatti & Raffi (2001: 190) and Huber (2010a: 500), and as
T. corbuloides
in Cossignani & Ardovini (2011: 59, 490). A similar but probably new species occurs in west Africa ( Cosel & Gofas 2019: 1020-1021).
