Species Natica pumila Sowerby 1846


Discussion / Comments:
Griffin & Nielsen (2008):
TYPE MATERIAL. The holotype could not be located in the Darwin Collection and is deemed to be lost. REMARKS. The identity of this species is unclear at present and must await a revision of the fauna from Chiloé. Better collections may prove that the name is valid, but until such studies are carried out and a neotype is designated we regard it as a nomen dubium.
