ter specific to Lophiotominae. Lophiotoma
and Crassispira are not considered consub-
familial by Taylor et a!. (1 993: 1 25).
LoPHocERCiNAE Gray, 1847 [November]
Reference: Proceedings of the Zoological
Society of London, 15: 163
Type genus: Lophocercus Krohn, 1847
Remarks: Original spelling Lephocercina,
based on the incorrect spelling Lephocercus.
-idae, Gray (1850b: 98). See Oxynoeidae.
LoPHOSPiRiNAE Wenz, 1938 [March]
Reference: Handbuch derPaläozoologie, 6(1 ):
124
Type genus: -\Lophospira Whitfield, 1886
Remarks: -idae, Knight, Batten & Yochelson
(in Moore, 1960: 207); -oidea, P. J. Wagner
(1999:30).
LoRiNAE Thiele, 1925 [1 November]
Reference: Handbuch der Zoologie, 5(1): 92
Type genus: Lora Gistel, 1848
Remarks: Thiele used Lora for the boreal species
now called Oenopota, and Lorinae
would then be a senior synonym of Oenopotinae.
However, Lora is a replacement
name for Defranc/a Millet, 1827, non Bronn,
1825, and its type-species has been ruled
by Opinion 666 (1963: 267) to be Defrancia
pagoda Millet, 1826: it would then be a jun-
ior synonym of Defranciinae and Clathurellinae.
Under Art. 41 the case needs to be
referred to the Commission. Not a homonym
of Loridae Gray, 1821, based on Loris Geoffroy
Saint-Hilaire, 1796 [Mammalia], which
was emended to Lorisidae by Opinion 1995
(2002; Bulletin of Zoological Nomenclature,
59: 65-67).
LoTORiiDAE Harris, 1897 [after 25 March]
Reference: Catalogue of Tertiary Mollusca in
the Department of Geology. British Museum
{Natural History), Part 7: 185
Type genus: Loior/t/m Montfort, 1810
Remarks: Replacement name for Thtonidae,
invalid because its type genus Triton Montfort,
1 81 0, is a junior homonym of Triton Linnaeus,
1758. See also Aquillidae and Lampusiidae.
LoTTiiDAE Gray, 1840 [16 October]
Reference: Synopsis of the contents of the
British Museum, ed. 42: 115
Type genus: Lottia Gray, 1833
Remarks: Original spelling Lottiadae. -inae /
-ini, Lindberg (1988b: 388); -oidea. Bouchet,
herein [in place of Acmaeoidea over which it
has priority].
LoxoNEMATiDAE,1889

Type genus: -fLoxonema Phillips, 1841
Remarks: Original spelling "Loxonematiden"
(vernacular). Latinized by Böhm (1895: 262).
-oidea [as -acea], Cossmann (1909; 11);
-inae, Wenz (1938; 39, 45, 377).
LoxoPLociNAE Cossmann, 1899 [April]
Reference: Essais de paléoconchologie comparée,
3: 105
Remarks: Not available: not based on a genus
[Loxoplocus P. Fischer, 1885, is unre-
lated: it was introduced as a subgenus of
Murchisonia and placed in Pleurotomariidae,
whereas Cossmann established Loxoplocinae
for a group of Volutidae].
LoYiNAE Martynov, 1994 [after 22 September]
Reference: Zoologicheskii Zhurnal, 73(10): 7
Type genus: Loy Martynov, 1 994
LucERNiNAE Swainson, 1840 [May]
Reference: A treatise on malacology: 1 62, 328
Type genus: Lucerna Röding, 1798
Remarks: The genus name Lucerna was first
published by Humphrey (1797) in a work
placed on the Official Index. It was subse-
quently used as valid, with or without reference
to Humphrey, by several authors, with
different taxonomic extensions. When he established
Lucerninae, Swainson used Lucerna
in the sense of Dentellarla Schumacher,
1817, i.e. for species of Pleurodontidae, and
not in the sense of Röding, 1798 (type spe-
cies designated by Kennard, 1942: 117, Helix
hngens Gmelin; i.e. a species of the orthalicid
subfamily Bulimulidae, tribe Odontostomini).
Under Art. 41 ,
the case should be brought to
the Commission. The name Lucerninae has
priority over OrthalicidaeAlbers, 1860, Bulim-
ulidae Tryon, 1867, Odontostomidae Pilsbry
&Vanatta, 1898, and Pleurodontidae Ihering,
1912, but it has never been used as a valid
name. -idae, H. B. Baker (1956: 132).

209).
