Griffin & Nielsen (2008): TYPE MATERIAL. There are three syntypes of this species in the Typothèque of the Laboratoire de Géologie under number MNHN-Gg2002/48. REMARKS. The material is very poor, but enough shell is left to suggest it might belong in Pitar Römer, 1857. The smaller syntype closely resembles Chione rodulfi Frassinetti & Covacevich, 1993 (p. 89-91, figs 33-36) from the Navidad Formation (early to middle Miocene) of Matanzas, Chile. The only apparent difference between the two species is the general shell outline and the better developed ornamentation in the material from Matanzas. |
