Family Acteonidae d’Orbigny, 1843 View in CoL

Genus Ravniella Rosenkrantz, 1970

Type species. Cinulia danica Ravn, 1902 (type by original designation). Early Danian , Stevns Klint, Denmark .

Remarks. Rosenkrantz (1970) erected the taxon as a subgenus of Tornatellaea Conrad, 1860 due to its close affinity with that genus, but it was later raised to full generic status by Kollmann & Peel (1983).

Ravniella Rosenkrantz was already defined in a meeting abstract published by Rosenkrantz (1963) and a type species was selected in a later abstract by Rosenkrantz (1966). Nevertheless the name did not become available before the 1970 publication of Rosenkrantz as meeting abstracts are regarded as invalid media for publication of new taxa (Article 9.9 of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature).
