Species Dentalium corrugatus Hupé 1854


Discussion / Comments:
Griffin & Nielsen (2008):
TYPE MATERIAL. The type material is mentioned in Catalogue 8P under number 201. However, we were not able to find this material in the Gay collection of the MNHN-LG. REMARKS. It is unclear if the type material still exists. Judging from Hupé’s original figure, Dentalium corrugatum Hupé, 1854 seems to be a synonym of D. giganteum Sowerby, 1846 (i.e., D. subgiganteum d’Orbigny, 1852) but if the type material is lost, selection of a neotype should await a systematic revision of all the Chilean Neogene scaphopods.
