Description
Summary:Pisanianura ? pusilla Bellardi, 1873 Fig. 6I–K Anura pusilla Bellardi, 1873: 204, pl. 11 fig. 24. Material examined ITALY – Emilia-Romagna • 4 specs; Castel di Casio; MGGC 22306 (H = 25.4, W = 15.3 mm), MGGC 22307 (H = 15.8, W = 10.8 mm), MGGC 22308 (H = 27.0, W = 23.4 mm), MGGC 22309 (H = 23.4, W = 17.7 mm). Remarks Anura pusilla was originally described by Bellardi (1873) from the Middle Miocene of the Turin hills; it was reported to reach 19 mm in height and as being rare. The specimens of P.? pusilla from Castel di Casio appear to have fewer and more widely spaced spiral threads than P. craverii (Bellardi, 1873) (see illustrations in Bellardi 1873; Ferrero Mortara et al. 1981; Landau & Harzhauser 2012). Miocene and Pliocene species of Anura Bellardi, 1873 reported by Bellardi (1873) were mentioned by Warén & Bouchet (1990) when discussing Pisanianura. They regarded the middle Miocene A. craverii as belonging to Pisanianura, but considered the position of A. pusilla as “more doubtful”.
