sulcata , Pleurotomaria –Deshayes, 1839-RegAnim: pl. 42, fig. 8. — Type locality: none given. — Type age: not stated. Listed by Sherborn (1931: 6306) as a Deshayes species, this was merely a transfer of Trochus sulcatus J. Sowerby, 1818 , to Pleurotomaria . Indeed, he had already explicitly made this transfer in 1832-EncyMeth: 791. However, Sowerby’s original combination was a junior homonym three times over, non [Lightfoot], 1786, nec Lamarck, 1804, nec Brocchi, 1814. Lamarck’s species was renamed Jujubinus helenae Pacaud, 2017 , but we are unaware of a renaming of the other two junior primary homonyms.
