Species Gastridium cepa Sowerby 1846


Discussion / Comments:
Griffin & Nielsen (2008):
TYPE MATERIAL. Holotype of Gastridium cepa NHM-G26339 (Navidad), holotype of F. labialis MNHN-Gg2002/71 (Topocalma), three syntypes of Fusus opimus MNHN-Gg2005/11 (Topocalma), one syntype of Fusus opimus MNHN-Gg2002/70 (Topocalma). REMARKS. This is the type species of Testallium Vermeij and DeVries, 1997. The taxonomic status and affinities of this species have been discussed by Vermeij and DeVries (1997a) and the synonymy with Fusus labialis and Fusus opimus was confirmed by Nielsen and Frassinetti (2003) based on the type material. The specimen of Fleming (in Watters & Fleming 1972) has also been examined and synonymy is confirmed.
