Original source.
Gray in Dieffenbach 1843: 263.
Type locality.
"New Zealand, Bay of Islands, Waitanga Falls", New Zealand.
Remarks.
Originally the gender was indicated as masculine (" trifasciatus "), but Melanopsis is feminine, which is why the name must be " trifasciata ". Type species of Zemelanopsis Finlay, 1926. The name " bifasciata " as mentioned in Pallary (1926a: 76) is an incorrect subsequent spelling.
