Solemyidae (Bivalvia, Protobranchia) from the lower Miocene of south-central Chile, with description of a new species

The Miocene Solemyidae of Chile are revised. The holotype of Solemya antarcticaPhilippi, 1887, originally described as Solenomya, is lost. Due to the lack of information on internal characters, its systematic position is considered as uncertain. A new species, Solemya lucifuga n. sp., is described f...
