Revised description. Medium-sized, moderately slender fusiform shell of up to eight teleoconch whorls; apical angle ~40–42°. Protoconch high conical of 3.5 weakly convex whorls, diameter 1200 μm, height 1300 μm. Last protoconch whorl with spiral cord close above abapical suture. Early teleoconch whorls with four primary spiral cords, two weak ones over subsutural ramp, two stronger marking shoulder and periphery. Later teleoconch whorls with narrow subsutural collar, wide, weakly convex to weakly concave subsutural ramp, rounded angulation below mid-whorl and moderately incised, shallowly undulating suture. Axial ribs strongly swollen at periphery, weakening over subsutural ramp, separated by wide interspaces. Spiral sculpture on subsutural ramp of about four secondary cords between adapical primary and subsutural collar, weakening adapically, with fine tertiary threads intercalated, below shoulder secondary and tertiary cords regularly intercalated between primary cords. Growth lines distinct in interspaces between spiral cords, especially on last whorl, giving finely imbricated surface appearance. Last whorl convex attaining ~60% of total height, with distinctly angled to rounded mid-whorl angulation and eight axial ribs; base strongly constricted; base and weak fasciole bearing prominent primary spiral cords with 2-3 weaker secondaries intercalated in interspaces. Aperture moderately narrowly pyriform. Columellar callus forming broad rim, sharply delimited from base, adherent in parietal area. Columella moderately excavated in upper half, with up to five columellar denticles of variable strength, twisted at transition to siphonal canal. Anal canal strongly incised, accentuated by distinct parietal denticle. Outer lip thickened by terminal varix, with up to eight short lirae in some specimens: many specimens without lirae. Typically, with two to three denticles (up to eight) prominent, close-set denticles occurring along transition from outer lip to siphonal canal. Siphonal canal moderately long, moderately narrow, straight to slightly defected to the left.

Discussion. The name Fusus crispus was unintentionally made available by Kittl (1887), who referred to the at that time unpublished monograph of Hoernes & Auinger (1890). Kittl (1887) provided a short discussion on the separation of this species from ‘ Fusus ’ crispus and referred to material from Ostrava ( Czech Republic) and form the Vienna Basin ( Austria). Herein, we select the specimen from Möllersdorf ( Austria), illustrated in Hörnes (1853: pl. 32, fig. 3) as lectotype, because the Czech specimens are poorly preserved.

Kautsky (1925: 115) synonymized the Paratethyan species with Latirulus rothi ( Beyrich, 1856) , from the Miocene of the North Sea. This was followed by Sieber (1937) and Kovacs (2022). Latirulus rothi , as reviewed by Cadée & Janssen (1994), belongs to a species complex existing in the North Sea from the Chattian to the Late Miocene. It is characterized by a large multispiral protoconch of four whorls. Cadée & Janssen (1994) placed it in Streptolathyrus Cossmann, 1901 [type species Streptochetus mellevillei Cossmann, 1889 ; Eocene, France], which was synonymized by Lozouet (2015: 30) with Latirulus Cossmann, 1889 [type species Fusus subaffinis d’Orbigny, 1850 ; Eocene, France]. Latirulus rothi differs from Fraudifusinus crispoides by the more delicate spiral sculpture, lacks the secondary cord flanked by a tertiary on either side between the primary spiral cords and lacks denticles in the outer lip (see Cadée & Janssen 1994: text–figs 33–34, pl. 6, figs 4–9).

This species was confused with Fraudifusinus grundensis nov. sp. and Fraudifusinus pseudocrispoides nov. sp. in the collection of the NHMW but differs from these species by its slightly shouldered whorls, rough sculpture and the more prominent denticles at the siphonal canal.

Paratethyan synonyms. Fusus florianus Bauer, 1900 , holotype illustrated in Bauer (1900, pl. 1, fig. 3), SL: 23 mm, MD 11 mm, Badenian, Middle Miocene, St. Florian ( Austria). The specimen is lost.

Paleoenvironment. Occurrences in the Baden Formation of the Vienna Basin suggest middle to outer neritic environments in up to 250 m water depth ( Kranner et al. 2021).

Distribution in Central Paratethys. Badenian (Middle Miocene): North Alpine-Carpathian Foreland Basin: Rudice, Ostrava ( Czech Republic) ( Kittl 1887; Hoernes & Auinger 1890); Vienna Basin: Baden, Bad Vöslau, Möllersdorf ( Austria) (hoc opus); Eisenstadt-Sopron Basin: Forchtenau ( Austria) (Hoernes & Auinger 1890); Styrian Basin: St. Florian ( Austria) ( Bauer 1900); Cserhát Mountains: Mátraverebély ( Hungary) (Csepreghy-Meznerics 1954); Bükk Mountains: Borsodbóta ( Hungary) ( Csepreghy-Meznerics 1972); Bahna Basin ( Romania) ( Macovei 1909); Făget Basin: Lăpugiu de Sus ( Romania) (hoc opus); Dacian Basin: Staropatica, Urovene ( Bulgaria) (Kojumdgieva in Kojumdgieva & Strachimirov 1960).
