Remarks.
Pallary (1916, 1920) erroneously treated " parva " as available name attributed to Férussac (1823), who solely used the word as descriptive term (Latin “small”). The name became nevertheless available from Pallary (1916) who associated the name with an illustration in Férussac (1823: pl. 8, fig. 5). Cossmann and Peyrot (1918: 485) considered the taxon as a junior synonym of Melanopsis subbuccinoides d’Orbigny, 1852.
