Melanopsis costata var. pulchella Bourguignat, 1884 [unresolved]
Original source.
Bourguignat 1884: 141.
Type locality.
"Du Lac d’Homs” (Lorcard 1883: 288) [in Lake Homs], Syria.
Remarks.
Introduced to replace - for whatever reason - the variety " gracilis " mentioned by Locard (1883a: 288), making pulchella its junior objective synonym. Melanopsis gracilis Locard, 1883 is a junior homonym of Melanopsis gracilis Brusina, 1874, which makes pulchella the next available name. However, Melanopsis costatapulchella is a homonym of the simultaneously introduced Melanopsis seignetti pulchella Bourguignat, 1884 (see Note 1). The action of a First Reviser is required to determine which of both pulchella is to be treated as valid.
