Species Oliva serena d'Orbigny 1842


Discussion / Comments:
Griffin & Nielsen (2008):
TYPE MATERIAL. Presumably lost. The specimen was not located in the collections at the MNHN. REMARKS. The holotype was an internal mould, as was the specimen mentioned by Möricke (1896, p. 572). Most probably it is a synonym of the extant Oliva peruviana Lamarck, 1811, which is common in the Pliocene/Pleistocene deposits around Coquimbo. The name Oliva serena is considered a nomen dubium.
