† Melanopsis permutabilis Pallary, 1920

Original source.

Pallary 1920b: 118.

Type horizon.

Cernikian, Pliocene.

Type locality.

“Bečić; Podvinje ( Čaplja) [ Čaplja trench near Slavonski Brod]; Sibinj; Kovačevac; Novska; Moslavina" ( Brusina 1874: 41-42), Croatia.

Remarks.

Probably a junior synonym: introduced for Melania costata sensu Brusina, 1874, non Olivier, 1804, which has been considered to be the same species as Melania costata sensu Neumayr, 1869 (e.g., Neumayr and Paul 1875: 41). For that misidentified record, Brusina (1884a: 168) had already introduced Melanopsis croatica as new name (see also discussion of Melanopsis pseudocostata Oppenheim, 1890). Not included in the Fossilium Catalogus of Wenz (1929).
