About the identity of Granulina pusaterii Smriglio & Mariottini, 2003 (Volutoidea: Granulinidae) from the Tunisian Plateau

Abstract


On the ground of an extensive study of topotypes and of the shell morphology documented in comparable Mediterranean populations, Granulina pusaterii Smriglio & Mariottini, 2003 described from the Tunisian Plateau is proved to belong to the natural variability of G. melitensis Smriglio, Mariottini & Rufini, 1998 and it is proposed as junior synonym name of the latter.

Teşekkür

Thanks are due to Dr Marco Taviani (ISMAR) for the access to the shell grit sampled from the Tunisian Plateau. We are also greatly indebted to Pr Antonio Bonfitto (MZB) who performed sharp photos of the holotypes of G. melitensis and of G. pusateri, and to Prof. Salvatore Giacobbe (BEL) for the loan of specimens from the Aeolian Islands. We are also indebted to Prof. Dr. Bilal Öztürk (EGE University, Izmir) for adjusting the form of the manuscript and for his constant help.
