NOTE: Chemnitz’s name is not available. = Tectarius grandinata (Gmelin, 1791).
8695. Mamma pes-elephantis Chem[nitz], Schmeltz, 1874[V]: 107. Nomen nudum.
NOTE: Chemnitz’s name is not available. = Natica peselephanti Link, 1807.
8711. Eulima contracta O. Semp[er], Schmeltz, 1874[V]: 108, with “E. inflexa Pse *)” in synonymy.
NOTE: The footnote *) states that the name “inflexa” was used by Deshayes in 1835. That attribution is in error
as explained by Warén (1981: 150) who showed that Pease’s name is not preoccupied. Under I.C.Z.N. (1999)
Art. 59.3 Eulima inflexa Pease, 1868 would be “permanently invalid unless the substitute name is not in use
and the relevant taxa are no longer considered congeneric.” That is the case here as Warén, who treated the
species as Pavioris inflexa (Pease, 1867 [sic; =1868c]), did not accept the substitute name. Warén cited the
Godeffroy Catalog as the origin of Eulima contracta Schmeltz, 1874 but attributed it to Semper. The correct
name for the species is Pavioris inflexa (Pease) as used by Warén.
8782. Bittium upolense Nob[is], Schmeltz, 1874[V]: 113. Nomen nudum.—Bittium upolensis [sic] Nobis,
Schmeltz, 1877[VI]: 104. Nomen nudum.
NOTE: No description of this species has been located.

NOTE: Chemnitz’s name is not available. = Vexillum cruentata (Gmelin, 1791).
8815. Pendactylus scti. mauritii [sic] Ch[emnitz], Schmeltz, 1874[V]: 122, with “Ricinula concatenata Blv. var.”
in synonymy. Nomen nudum.
NOTE: Chemnitz’s name is not available. Name made available as Buccinum s. mauritii [sic; = sanctimauritii]

8832. Turricula (Costellaria) emiliae Nobis, Schmeltz, 1874[V]: 119, with “M. plicatula Pse. [= Turricula
plicatula Pease, 1868a] *)” in synonymy.
NOTE: The footnote states that “plicatula” was used for a Mitra by Brocchi, 1814 [Voluta plicatula Brocchi,
1814]. Vexillum emiliae (Schmeltz, 1874) is in use but sometimes attributed to Garrett, 1880 in error although
Garrett (1880: 45) correctly attributed the name to Schmeltz and gave a complete reference.

8873. Strombus (Monodactylus) tricornis Mart[ini], Schmeltz, 1874[V]: 142. Nomen nudum.
NOTE: Martini’s name is not available. = Strombus tricornis [Lightfoot, 1786].

NOTE: Chemnitz’s name is not available. = Malleus albus Lamarck, 1819.
9037. Cithara elegans Garr[ett] (Msc.), Schmeltz, 1877[VI]: 89. Nomen nudum.
NOTE: No description of this species has been located.
9088. Engina rarotongensis Nobis, Schmeltz, 1877[VI]: 88. Nomen nudum.
NOTE: There is no description. No other record of this name has been located except in Schmeltz, 1874[V]:
127 where it appeared as number 8088, q.v.
9207. Amycla minuta Dkr. [= Dunker], Schmeltz, 1869[IV]: 87 [as number 3624]. Nomen nudum.—Amycla
sublaevis Mont[rouzier in Souverbie & Montrouzier], Schmeltz, 1874[V]: 127; with “A. minuta Dkr. [=

nudum.—Amycla sublaevis Montr[ouzier] var. minor [no author], Schmeltz, 1874[V]: 127, with “Mitrella
pellucida Dkr. Mus. Godeffroy Cat. IV” in synonymy. Nomen nudum.
NOTE: No description of C. pellucida by Dunker has been located. Possibly an error for C. pellucida Pease,
1861a. The varietal name minor has been used in Columbellidae at least nine times, none seeming to fit here.
9214. Columbella (Anachis) semen Dkr. [= Dunker] n. sp., Schmeltz, 1869[IV]: 88 [as number 1811a]; 1874[V]:
