† Melanopsis cepula Guppy, 1866
Original source.
Guppy 1866: 580, pl. 26, fig. 14.
Type horizon.
Late Miocene.
Type locality.
“Cumana”, Venezuela.
Remarks.
Given as " capula " on p. 580, but as " cepula " in the plate captions. Guppy (1867) acted as First Reviser and fixed the correct original spelling as " cepula " (Art. 24.2.3, 32.2.1). Guppy (1867) did not consider the species a melanopsid anymore and introduced the new genus Crepitacella ( Rissoinidae ) with Melanopsis cepula as type species.
