Type material. Not found

Type locality. Described from Sfax ( Tunisia).

Remarks. Recorded by MolluscaBase (2018) as taxon inquirendum. This form is arguably to refer to Auriculinella bidentata (Montagu, 1808) [new synonymy], a species recorded also from Sfax ( Cecalupo et al., 2008: 138; pl. 79, figs 1–5), the Type locality. of Leuconia exigua . We failed to find the type material or other material labeled as “ Leuconia exigua ” in the Monterosato collection.
