Anatoma agulhasensis ( Thiele, 1925)

Scissurella agulhasensis Thiele, 1925: 41 (7)–42(8), pl. 13, fig. 2.

Scissurella agulhasenesis: Barnard, 1963: 301–302 .

Scissurella agulhasenesis: Kensley, 1973: 28 , fig. 27.

Anatoma agulhasensis: Herbert, 1986: 611–613 , figs. 3, 11–14.

not Anatoma agulhasensis: Bandel, 1998: 34–35 , pl. 11, figs 4–6 [is A. turbinata ].

not Anatoma agulhasensis: Jansen, 1999: 48 , figs 1–3 [is A. turbinata ].

Type material: SYNTYPES, 3 ( ZMB uncatalogued, destroyed by Byne’s disease or glass disease: note Kilias, 1973; Geiger, pers. obs. 2002) . NEOTYPE ( NMSA W181 View Materials /T1916, separated from NMSA C7967, here designated: Herbert, 1986: figs. 12, 14), of Mtamvuna River , Transkei, 120–140 m, specimen collected alive .

Type locality. (35°16’S 22°26.7’E), 155 m (OD); off Mossel Bay [, South Africa] ( Herbert, 1986) GoogleMaps .

Etymology. Agulhas­ referring to the Agulhas Stream around South Africa, ­ensis indicating a locality: from the Agulhas Stream region (OD).

Description. As the species is not part of the Australian fauna (see Remarks) we refer to the detailed discussion by Herbert (1986).

Remarks. Anatoma agulhasensis has been reported from the Australian fauna ( Bandel, 1998; Jansen, 1999). Those specimens, however, represent misidentified A. turbinata (A. Adams, 1862) , and are discussed under the latter species.

We designate here a neotype for A. agulhasensis in order to fix taxon identity. In lieu of selecting a topotype, we have selected the specimen illustrated in the revision of the South African Scissurellidae by Herbert (1986). Note that the illustrations of A. agulhasensis of Herbert (1986) were obtained from two different specimens: figs. 12 and 14 from the specimen here designated as the neotype (NMSA W181/T1916), figs. 3, 11, and 13, from a second specimen in the same lot (NMSA C7967) containing a total of 14 specimens, including the neotype. The neotype is catalogued under its original genus Scissurella .
