Discussion. Cerithium ampullosum Brongniart, 1823 , is a species based on syntypes from the Oligocene of Castelgomberto ( Italy) and the Burdigalian of Saint-Paul-lès-Dax ( France) (syntype MNHN.F.A82845, stored in the Muséum national d’Histoire naturelle, Paris, France). So far, this species has not been documented from Paratethyan deposits. Most probably, Pusch (1836) had a small Terebralia at hand.
