Treatment

Amplirhagada percita ( Iredale, 1939) View in CoL

Tenuigada percita Iredale, 1939: 68 View in CoL , pl. V, fig. 14 (northern end of Napier Range), Solem, 1981a: 211–225, pl. 14e–f, figs. 47a–j, 50c, 51b–c.

Tenuigada ignara Iredale, 1939: 68 View in CoL , pl. V, fig. 13 (north end of Napier Range).

Nomenclatural remarks. Iredale (1939) described the two species, A. percita View in CoL and A. ignara View in CoL , based on series of dry shells. Subsequently, the two names were synonymized by Solem (1981a), who revised the genus, on the grounds that no significant difference in the shells were found, which would justify treatment as distinct species. However, Solem (1981a) also stated that he found distinct differences between allopatric populations of this species. Hence, it remains to be critically tested whether the taxon as currently delimited by Solem (1981a) encompasses more than a single species.

Material examined. AMS C144028 (Western Australia, Napier Range , 24 km N of Wagon Pass, 17°04.5"S 124°34'E) ( Fig. 1 View Figure 1 , Pl. 2.17) .
