| Summary: | Laeviphitus sp. Fig. 6C–E Laeviphitus sp. Kiel, Sami & Taviani 2018: fig. 6d–e. Material examined ITALY – Emilia-Romagna • 2 specs; Santa Sofia; Ca’ Rovereti; NRM Mo 204837, Mo 204838 • 2 specs; Ca’ Fornace; MSF 2139, MSF 2140. – Tuscany • 1 spec.; Le Colline; MSF 1204 (H = 8 mm). Description Protoconch low-turbiniform, sculpture cancellate with numerous closely-spaced, strong, slightly oblique axial ribs crossed by about 10 finer spiral lines; transition to teleoconch straight and abrupt; teleoconch smooth, initially egg-shaped, later whorls becoming taller. Remarks Sacco(1895) described and illustrated numerous smooth rissoiform gastropods from the Neogene of northern Italy. Most similar to Laeviphitus sp. is perhaps the rare Miocene Cingula (Setia ?) taurinomiocenica Sacco, 1895 (Sacco 1895: 32, pl. 1 fig. 82) (re-illustrated by Ferrero Mortara et al. 1984: pl. 40 fig. 3) from the Turin hills. But Sacco described the protoconch as “depressed”, which seems an unlikely description for the cancellate, ... : Published as part of Kiel, Steffen, Sami, Marco & Taviani, Marco, 2023, Mollusks (Gastropoda, Bivalvia) from Miocene cold-seep deposits in northern Italy: revisions and additions, pp. 115-160 in European Journal of Taxonomy 910 on page 130, DOI: 10.5852/ejt.2023.910.2365, http://zenodo.org/record/10350702 ... |
