Santa Maria material. Two specimens from Feteirinhas (= Ponta das Salinas), size unknown, Santa Maria Island, Touril Complex, Lower Pliocene , not illustrated .

Discussion. Pseudomangelia vauquelini ( Payraudeau, 1826) is characterised by its solid, squat, biconic profile, paucispiral protoconch and teleoconch whorls which are angular at the shoulder and have strong broad axial ribs. Mayer (1864: 68) records two specimens from Feteirinhas (= Ponta das Salinas). We cannot confirm its presence in the Azorean assemblages.

Chirli (1997: 73) recorded it from the Upper Miocene Tortonian of Montegibbio ( Italy). This and other unillustrated records from the Miocene (e.g., Doderlein 1864; Mayer 1864; Bardin 1882) are excluded pending confirmation. For full discussion see Scarponi & Della Bella (2010).

Distribution. Lower Pliocene: Atlantic, Santa Maria Island (fide Mayer 1864); central Mediterranean, Italy ( Chirli 1997; Scarponi & Della Bella 2010). Upper Pliocene: western Mediterranean, Estepona Basin, Spain (Landau et al. 2023); central Mediterranean, Italy ( Brugnone 1862; Bellardi 1877; Sacco 1904; Malatesta 1974; Cavallo & Repetto 1992; Scarponi & Della Bella 2010; Brunetti & Cresti 2018). Lower Pleistocene: central Mediterranean, Italy ( Cerulli-Irelli 1910). Present-day: Madeira ( Segers et al. 2009), Selvagens ( Albuquerque et al. 2009) and Canary Islands ( Nordsieck & García-Talavera 1979), Morocco ( Spada et al. 2023) western Mediterranean (Bucquoy et al. 1883), central Mediterranean ( Bogi et al., 1979, Cachia et al. 2001), eastern Mediterranean (Özţrk 2021), whole Mediterranean ( Spada et al, 2023).
