Original source.
Brusina 1878: 347.
Type horizon.
Middle-late Cernikian, late Pliocene-early Pleistocene.
Type locality.
“Sibinj”, Croatia.
Types.
Milan et al. (1974: 57) indicated a holotype, but it is uncertain whether the specimen is part of the original type series and whether it was the only one Brusina had at hand (holotype by monotypy, Art. 73.1.2). The specimen is stored in the Croatian Natural History Museum, Zagreb, coll. no. 2963-609.
Remarks.
Considered to belong in the genus Amphimelania by Brusina (1897: 6), Cossmann (1909: 126) and Wenz (1929: 2874). The names " caji " as mentioned in Cossmann (1909: 126) and " gayi " as given by Bandel (2000: 140) are incorrect subsequent spellings.
