Original source.
Neumayr and Paul 1875: 36, pl. 7, fig. 34.
Type horizon.
Cernikian, Pliocene.
Type locality.
"Cigelnik [Ciglenik]; [...] Novska", Croatia.
Remarks.
Neumayr mentioned uncertainties regarding the locality Ciglenik because he had lost the original collection label. The species epithet is a noun in apposition and needs not to agree in gender with the generic name (Art. 31.2.1). Considered to belong in the genus Amphimelania by Brusina (1897: 6), Cossmann (1909: 126) and Wenz (1929: 2876).
