63425C65FFE53206FE42FC52FEEB884C.taxon	discussion	Remarks – The taxon was described from the Lower Badenian Leitha Limestone Formation of Letkés (Hungary). Murex (Promurex) spinicosta is distinguishable by lower spire, longer and less recurved siphonal canal, and well-developed P 1, P 3, P 5, and MP spines. Chicoreus (Triplex) is characterized by a similar morphology with trivaricate sculpture and slightly recurved siphonal canal. The Triplex species, however, differ by stronger apertural denticles, smooth columellar lip, deeper anal notch, broader pseudoumbilicus, well-developed parietal callus. Furthermore, all European fossil Triplex species have much weaker P 1 and stronger ADP spines. S. hirmetzli is the first representative of the genus in the European Cenozoic. The occurrence at Lăpugiu shows a wider distribution in the Central Paratethys.	en	Kovács, Zoltán (2018): Muricidae (Neogastropoda) assemblages from the Middle Miocene of the Făget Basin (Romania) in the collection of the Hungarian Natural History Museum, Budapest.

63425C65FFE43200FE84FA42FBB18CDF.taxon	discussion	Remarks – A detailed taxonomic analysis of the Recent and fossil H. (Trunculariopsis) trunculus (Linnaeus) group was offered by LANDAU et al. (2007), and a Late Miocene – Middle Pliocene chronosubspecies, H. (T.) trunculus conglobatus (Michelotti) was considered. The subspecies is highly variable in morphology, the specimen figured here with scalate spire and long spines is close to that illustrated by MERLE et al. (2011, pl. 40, fig. 4). Nevertheless, the Early Badenian range of the taxon cannot be stated with certainty even now. On the one hand the taxon has never been mentioned in the Middle Miocene at other localities, on the other hand – being a donation – the origin of the specimen is not well-established, the circumstances of the collecting work are unknown. The donator was Rezső Streda (1883 – 1960; D. Theol., Roman Catholic priest) fossil collector. He donated and sold a great number of Miocene molluscs to the HNHM during the 1950 s – 60 s, and he was regarded as a reliable collector.	en	Kovács, Zoltán (2018): Muricidae (Neogastropoda) assemblages from the Middle Miocene of the Făget Basin (Romania) in the collection of the Hungarian Natural History Museum, Budapest.

63425C65FFE13202FEA3FC4DFBD88865.taxon	discussion	Remarks – The specimen figured here is close in morphology to the type. It is characterized by small, worn shell (SL 6), eroded protoconch, four shouldered teleoconch whorls (last whorl 63 % of the total length), wide, ovate aperture, smooth lips within, and wide, open siphonal canal. Spiral sculpture of strong primary cords (P 1 – P 2 on the spire whorls, P 1 – P 6 on the last whorl), axial sculpture of four varices on the spire whorls and three varices on the last whorl. New collecting works prove the occurrence of the species in the Lower Badenian deposits of Mecsekpölöske (Mecsek Mts, SW Hungary). The studied specimens are of similar size and identical morphology; the records confirm the validity of the taxon.	en	Kovács, Zoltán (2018): Muricidae (Neogastropoda) assemblages from the Middle Miocene of the Făget Basin (Romania) in the collection of the Hungarian Natural History Museum, Budapest.

63425C65FFE03203FEE4FDC6FBF98AE4.taxon	discussion	Remarks – Two Pagodula species are known in the Middle Miocene Paratethys, P. vaginata (De Cristofori et Jan) and P. varicosissima (Michelotti). P. varicosissima differs from the former by paucispiral protoconch and less developed spines. The type of Trophon varicosissimus spiniferus (CSEPREGHY-MEZNERICS 1969, pl. 4, fig. 3) fits within the variability of P. varicosissima.	en	Kovács, Zoltán (2018): Muricidae (Neogastropoda) assemblages from the Middle Miocene of the Făget Basin (Romania) in the collection of the Hungarian Natural History Museum, Budapest.

63425C65FFEC3208FEB1FA35FE828D81.taxon	discussion	Remarks – The occurrence of M. moravicus at Lăpugiu was already recorded by BOETTGER (1906: 31). As it is a poorly known species, a revised description is provided here. Shell length max. 22 mm, protoconch of 1.5 smooth, rounded whorls, teleoconch of five shouldered whorls. Last whorl 73.7 % of total length of the teleoconch. Ovate aperture, five strong denticles within the outer lip, two folds on the columella, siphonal canal open and slightly dorsally recurved. Scabrous shell surface, spiral sculpture of strong primary cords (first whorl: appearance of P 1 and P 2; third and fourth teleoconch whorls: P 1 – P 3, last whorl: strong P 1 – P 5, weakly developed P 6 and ADP, MP and ABP). Axial sculpture of eight varices on the penultimate and six varices on the last whorl, small P 1 spinelets on the varices. The specimen figured here agrees well in morphology with the type. The species was assigned to Orania by VOKES (1971), the morphology, however, is not typical of this genus. Based on the paucispiral protoconch, the strong sculpture, and the two columellar folds the species is assigned to subgenus Muricopsis. Murex tarnopolensis Friedberg differs only in size, hence it is considered as a juvenile representative of M. (M.) moravica. The Early Pliocene specimen figured by GORET et al. (2013, pl. 1, fig. 1) as M. (M.) alternicosta (Michelotti) is distinguishable from the type of alternicosta (MICHELOTTI 1841, pl. 5, figs 4 – 5) by gradate spire and long siphonal canal, it is very close in size and morphology to moravica.	en	Kovács, Zoltán (2018): Muricidae (Neogastropoda) assemblages from the Middle Miocene of the Făget Basin (Romania) in the collection of the Hungarian Natural History Museum, Budapest.

Shell length max. 10.5 mm, protoconch of about 2 smooth, rounded whorls, teleoconch of five whorls. Last whorl 80 % of total length of the teleoconch. Ovate aperture, six denticles within the outer lip (ID, D 1 – D 5), three folds on the columella, siphonal canal open and slightly dorsally recurved. Crenulate axial growth lamellae, spiral sculpture of strong primary cords (first whorl: appearance of P 1 and P 2; last whorl: strong P 1 – P 5). Axial sculpture of 6 – 7 varices on the last whorl, small P 1 – 5 spinelets on the varices. The classification of the species is discussed in the literature. I follow VOKES (1994) who underlined the presence of characteristic growth lamellae on the shell surface and assigned giselae to subgenus Pygmaepterys.	en	Kovács, Zoltán (2018): Muricidae (Neogastropoda) assemblages from the Middle Miocene of the Făget Basin (Romania) in the collection of the Hungarian Natural History Museum, Budapest.

However, HOERNES & AUINGER (1885) already recorded the species at Lăpugiu, and the specimen figured here also confirms the Middle Miocene occurrence. Size and morphology agree well with the revised description except the labral tooth for the fragmentary preservation. The closest form is the specimen illustrated by LANDAU et al. (2007, pl. 9, fig. 2). The specimen figured by KOJUMDGIEVA (1960, pl. 40, fig. 9) as Tritonalia (Ocinebrina) imbricata differs from the type in development of the spire and the spiral sculpture, it probably represents O. recognita Bałuk, 2006.	en	Kovács, Zoltán (2018): Muricidae (Neogastropoda) assemblages from the Middle Miocene of the Făget Basin (Romania) in the collection of the Hungarian Natural History Museum, Budapest.

63425C65FFF53217FE61FF59FB0C8FED.taxon	description	Description – Robust shell of medium size, protoconch of about 1.5 smooth, rounded whorls. Teleoconch of five slightly convex whorls, suture shallow, undulating. Last whorl 76 % of the total length. Aperture ovate, outer lip erect, seven denticles within, bearing a short labral tooth abapically. Anal notch moderately developed, columellar lip thin and smooth, siphonal canal straight, short, narrow and sealed, siphonal fasciole recurved, rounded, forming lateral wall of pseudoumbilicus. Axial sculpture of seven broad, rounded, slightly prosocline ribs on the penultimate and last whorls of the holotype. Spiral sculpture of numerous narrow, rounded, and slightly scabrous primary and secondary cords; a strong basal spiral band on the last whorl is formed by labral teeth.	en	Kovács, Zoltán (2018): Muricidae (Neogastropoda) assemblages from the Middle Miocene of the Făget Basin (Romania) in the collection of the Hungarian Natural History Museum, Budapest.

63425C65FFF53217FE61FF59FB0C8FED.taxon	discussion	Remarks – Based on morphology the new species is assigned to genus Ocinebrina. The labral tooth appears on some species of the genus, e. g. on O. imbricata known in the region. The latter, however, differs from O. landaui n. sp. by larger, fusiform shell, more convex teleoconch whorls, deeper and bordered anal notch, and finer axial ribs. New collecting works prove the occurrence of the new species in the Pannonian Basin at two localities: Letkés and Bánd (Hungary). The specimen from Turkey illustrated by LANDAU et al. (2013, pl. 24, fig. 22) as Coralliophila sp. is a closely allied form. It is characterized by identical size, labral tooth, and similar spiral and axial sculpture, but slightly differs by somewhat higher spire. Nevertheless, it is regarded herein as a Serravallian representative of O. landaui n. sp. The online International Fossil Shell Museum (http: // www. fossilshells. nl) represents a specimen as Ocenebra avitensis Cossmann et Peyrot from the Tortonian of Karaman. The morphology differs from that of avitensis (paratype MNHN. F. J 05986 illustrated by the Muséum National d’Histoire Naturelle, Paris: https: // science. mnhn. fr / institution / mnhn / collection / f / item / j 05986? lang = fr _ FR) by less rounded whorls, broader base, and presence of labral tooth. On the other hand its size and morphology agree well with that of O. landaui n. sp., so the specimen is regarded as another representative of the new species in the Miocene of Turkey.	en	Kovács, Zoltán (2018): Muricidae (Neogastropoda) assemblages from the Middle Miocene of the Făget Basin (Romania) in the collection of the Hungarian Natural History Museum, Budapest.

63425C65FFFF321CFE82FC9DFDC588EB.taxon	discussion	Remarks – As the supraspecific classification of the species is uncertain, a revised description is provided here. Shell length max. 25 mm, protoconch of two smooth and rounded whorls, high spire, teleoconch of five shouldered whorls with slightly concave sutural ramp. Last whorl 68.7 % of the total length. Narrow, ovate aperture, well-developed anal notch, six denticles within outer lip, columella smooth, siphonal canal short, open, slightly recurved. Spiral sculpture of four primary cords with narrow secondary cords on the last whorl, axial sculpture of 8 – 9 rounded ribs on the spire whorls, 7 ribs on the last whorl. The size and morphology of austriaca are closely allied to Habromorula. Fossil species of the subgenus are known in the Middle Miocene Paratethys (Poland) and the Proto-Mediterranean Sea (S France). H. austriaca is rare but widespread in the Early Badenian Central Paratethys. It was described from the Vienna Basin and Lăpugiu de Sus, later recorded from Várpalota (Hungary), and new collecting works prove wide geographical range in the Pannonian Basin (Bánd, Letkés, Márkháza; Hungary).	en	Kovács, Zoltán (2018): Muricidae (Neogastropoda) assemblages from the Middle Miocene of the Făget Basin (Romania) in the collection of the Hungarian Natural History Museum, Budapest.
