Abstract

In 1984 W.O. Cernohorsky reviewed the Indo-West Pacific species of Nassariidae. He revised Nassarius siquijorensis (A. Adams, 1852) and among the many synonyms listed were N. crenelliferus (A. Adams, 1852) and N. cingendus (Marrat, 1880). In this paper N. crenelliferus is considered to be a valid species and N. cingendus a synonym of this species, not a synonym of N. siquijorensis. Nassarius siquijorensis remains a valid species and its type location is designated.

Abstract

One of the syntypes of Strombus robustus G.B. Sowerby III, 1875 has been discovered in the collection of NHMUK and is designated as lectotype. The status of this species, allocated to Margistrombus Bandel, 2007, is addressed. Both Strom­bus (Dolomena) marginatus sowerbyorum Visser & Man in ’t Veld, 2005 and Margistrombus bouchet Thach, 2016 are junior subjective synonyms of S. robustus. The lectotype of S. robustus and the holotype of respectively S. (D.) m. sow­erbyorum and M. boucheti is illustrated.
