            <p>ETYMOLOGY. — Named in honour of Dominique Lamy.</p>
            <p>DESCRIPTION OF THE HOLOTYPE</p>
            <p>Protoconch of 1.75 whorls.Teleoconch, H 13.1 mm, D 5.9 mm. Low spire of fours whorls. Last whorl of 81% of the total length. Shoulder angulation sharp. Apical angle of 85°. Suture impressed crossed by a laminar extension connecting the shoulder spine to the preceding teleoconch whorl. Spiral sculpture: IP on the sutural ramp, P1 corresponding to anal tube, P2, P3, P4 and P5 on convex part of the whorl, P6, ADP, MP on siphonal canal. Primary cords slightly marked near the varices. P1 and P2 appearing since the first whorl. Primary cord spines on IP, P2, P3, P4 and P5. On the last whorl, broad varical flange up to the extremity of siphonal canal. Four ventrally sealed anal tubes (P1 spine), abapically and dorsally recurved, forming an angle of 30° with the axis of the shell. Last tube intact, others cut down. Axial sculpture: four varices since the first whorl. Aperture rounded. Columellar lip smooth, erected.No anal sulcus. Outer lip erected and smooth within. Siphonal canal winding, ventrally sealed, dorsally curved, up to 40.4% of the total length. Microsculpture of growing grooves. Shell chocolate, beige and white. Anal tubes (P1), siphonal canal and aperture whitish. Several dark blotches on the ventral part of the siphonal canal (3 blotches) and the outer lip (4 blotches). Operculum and radula unknown.</p>
            <p>COMPARISON</p>
            <p> Because of its moderately high shape and its developed cords spines,  Typhinellus lamyi n. sp. should be compared with  T. occlusus (Garrard, 1963) recorded from the Philippines and New Caledonia (80-200 m deep) and with  T. labiatus (Cristofori &amp; Jan, 1832) . Specimens of  T. occlusus can resemble  T. lamyi n. sp. in bearing three dark blotches on the siphonal canal (Fig. 2I and Hardy 2014); however,  T. occlusus (Fig. 2I) differs mainly by a smaller aperture, a longer siphonal canal (45.6 % of the total length) and a larger size up to 25-35 mm (instead 9.5-13 mm). On the biogeographical point of view,  T. labiatus is closer to  T. lamyi n. sp. , both species living in the Atlantic Ocean. The shape of  T. labiatus is rather similar to that of  T. lamyi n. sp. and as for  T. occlusus , several specimens of  T. labiatus can resemble  T. lamyi n. sp. in bearing three dark blotches on the siphonal canal (Hardy 2014).  T. labiatus (Fig. 2G, H) differs by its spiral sculpture; it displays secondary cords spines s2 and s4 missing in  T. lamyi n. sp. (Fig. 11A). </p>

            <p>COMPARISON (SEE ALSO TABLE 1)</p>
            <p> In comparison with  Dermomurex (Trialatella) abyssicola (Crosse, 1865) (Fig. 3I, J), a species ranging from Bahamas to Brazil between 0.5 m and 20 m deep,  D. (T.) pruvosti n. sp. differs by a nodulose sculpture formed by small protuberances at the intersection between the varices and the primary cords.  Dermomurex (T.) pruvosti n. sp. is also distinguishing from  D. (T.) abyssicola by developed wing-like varices and by an atrophied P3 on the convex part of the whorl.  D. (T.) pruvosti n. sp. is brown, instead yellow-whitish in  D. (T.) abyssicola . </p>

            <p> TYPE SPECIES. —  Murex scalarinus Bivona-Bernardi, 1832 (by original designation) junior synonym of  Murex scalaroides Blainville, 1829 . Pliocene: Mediterranean Sea; Recent, Mediterranean Sea and Senegal (see Merle et al. 2011). </p>
            <p>REMARKS</p>
            <p> In their muricid phylogeny based on molecular data, Barco et al. (2010) strongly suggested the polyphyly of the  Muricinae sensu Vokes (1996), but, as the relationships with the clade  Muricinae (s.s.) are not resolved, we cannot be totally sure of the lack of relationships between the  Dermomurex subclade and the Attiliosa-  Muricopsinae subclade and the clade  Muricinae (s.s.). Considering these results, Merle et al. (2011) assigned  Dermomurex to an informal Aspelloid group, for which the status among the clade of the  Muricinae (s.s.) remains uncertain or needs to be verified. </p>

On the convex part of the whorl: P1, P2, P3 and P4 well developed, P5 smaller. On the siphonal canal: P6 and ADP. On the first whorl: six protovarices; on the second whorl: seven protovarices; on the third and fourth whorl: three varices and three intervarical ribs (intercalated between two varices); on the last whorl: three varices and five small of intervarical ribs (intercalated between two varices). Aperture ovate. Columellar lip smooth and adherent. Outer lip erected and lacking denticles within. Siphonal canal open, dorsally recurved and up to 23% of the total length of teleoconch. Microsculpture: thin spiral threads on the whole surface of the shell, when the intritacalx is removed. Intritacalx marked by a latticework of axial and spiral lines. Shell colour unknown under a creamy intritacalx. Aperture orange. Operculum and radula unknown.</p>
            <p>COMPARISON (SEE ALSO TABLE 1)</p>
            <p> Dermomurex (Trialatella) boucheti n. sp. should be compared with  D. (T.) abyssicola , to  D. (T.) oxum Petuch, 1979 (Fig. 3M) from Panama to Brazil between 25 and 52 m deep and to the type species.  Dermomurex (T.) boucheti n. sp differs from  D. (T.) abyssicola by a shorter spire, a broader shell and by more developed varical extensions. In addition, the axial sculpture of  D. (T.) boucheti n. sp. bears five small intervarical ribs (intercalated between two varices) on the last whorl, whereas that of  D. (T.) abyssicola bears only a single intervarical rib (intercalated between two varices).  D. (T.) boucheti n. sp. is distinguished from  D. (T.) oxum by lacking intervarical rib. Moreover, its shape is ovate instead biconical. The outer lip of  D. (T.) boucheti n. sp. is smooth, whereas it bears five denticles (D1 to D5) in  D. (T.) cunninghamae (Merle et al. 2011, fig. 76A). </p>

They represent two syntypes and have the following register number: MHNG INVE 51843 (corresponding to the old numbers MHNG 1099/ 41/1, H: 43.4 mm and MHNG 1099/41/2, H: 34.6 mm) MHNG 1099/ 41/1, H: 43.4 mm and MHNG 1099/41/2, H: 34.6 mm). In order to avoid confusion with other species, a lectotype of  Murex hexagonus Lamarck, 1816 is hereby designated from the syntype MHNG 1099/ 41/1  .  Thus, the syntype MHNG 1099/41/2 becomes a paralectotype.</p>

            <p>REMARKS</p>
            <p> Lamarck (1816) figured  Murex hexagonus Lamarck, 1816 among shells coming from the Antilles and gave a description in 1822. Unfortunately, this name had previously been proposed by Gmelin (1791) and is usually unaccepted, because it is considered to be a junior primary homonym. However, the article 23.9.5 of the ICZN (1999) stipulates that: “When an author discovers that a species-group name in use is a junior primary homonym [Art. 53.3] of another species-group name also in use, but the names apply to taxa not considered congeneric after 1899, the author must not automatically replace the junior homonym” – the case should be referred to the Commission for a ruling under the plenary power and meanwhile prevailing usage of both names is to be maintained.” In respect to this article, these two names are not considered congeneric after 1899 and the prevailing usage is maintained for  Murex hexagonus Lamarck, 1816 and  Cerithium hexagonum (Gmelin, 1791) .  Murex hexagonus Gmelin, 1791 , from the Middle Eocene of Europe, has been transferred in genus  Cerithium (Bruguière 1792) .  Murex hexagonus Gmelin, 1791 is a junior synonym of  Murex angulatus Solander in Brander 1766 and belongs to the genus  Pyrazopsis Akopjan, 1972 (Harzhauser et al. 2013). In conclusion, the name  Murex hexagonus Lamarck, 1816 should be rehabilitated. </p>
            <p> Later, Smith (1938) described a subspecies  Murex hexagonus oxytatus from a Plio-Pleistocene fossil (Caloosahatchee Formation, Florida, USA) and since Abbott (1958),  M. oxytatus is usually used for Recent material (Abbott 1974, Fair 1976, Radwin &amp; d’Attilio 1976, Abbott &amp; Dance1982, Vokes 1994, Houart 2006 see above the synonymic list). However, the case of  M. hexagonus Lamarck, 1816 was not reconsidered and Vokes (1994) discussing  M. zylmanae (Petuch, 1993) suggested that the figure of  Murex hexagonus Lamarck, 1816 displays more similarities with  M. zylmanae than with  M. oxytatus . Thus, the question of the identity of  M. hexagonus Lamarck, 1816 was open. The study of numerous specimens of  Murexsul collected in the Caribbean area allows to identify seven local species:  Murexsul oxytatus (Smith, 1938) ,  M. huberti (Radwin &amp; D’Attilio, 1976) ,  M. zylmanae and  M . chesleri Houart, 2006,  M. sunderlandi (Petuch, 1987) ,  M. warreni (Petuch, 1993) ,  M. jahami Merle &amp; Garrigues, 2011 and to distinguish an eighth species. Thanks to the collaboration of Y. Finet (MHNG), we received photos of the two syntypes of  Murex hexagonus . These photos correspond to the species that we identified as the eighth species. </p>
            <p>COMPARISON (SEE ALSO TABLE 3)</p>
            <p> Murexsul oxytatus (Fig. 7G, H) is distinguished from  M. hexagonus by columellar folds and by a shorter siphonal canal. In  M. oxytatus , the length of siphonal canal is 24% of the total length of the teleoconch (average on 11 spm), instead of 28% for  M. hexagonus (average on 14 spm), see also Fig. 9. In addition, the cord spines P1 of  M. hexagonus are longer than those of  M. oxytatus .  Murexsul zylmanae (Fig.7I) differs from  M.hexagonus by hypertrophied cord spines P1, P3 and P5, an atrophied P4, a longer siphonal canal and a more acute spire.  Murexsul huberti (Fig. 7J) has a lower spire than  M. hexagonus with an apical angle of 54° instead of 44°. It displays seven varices on last whorl instead six. The protoconch is also shorter with 1.25 whorls instead 1.5 whorls.  Murexsul chesleri (Fig. 7K) exhibits a shorter siphonal canal, a broader infrasutural ramp. In  M. chesleri , the cord spine P3 is longer than the P1 cord spine whereas in  M. hexagonus , the P1 cord spine is longer than the P3 cord spine.  Murexsul sunderlandi (Petuch, 1987) has a more globose shell with a lower spire and a peculiar red colour with white spiral bands. In comparison with  M. warreni (Petuch, 1993) ,  M. hexagonus displays a narrower shape, a higher spire and a longer siphonal canal.  Murexsul warreni bears a white color white with black spots.  Murexsul jahami Merle &amp; Garrigues, 2011 , differs from  M. hexagonus by an inflated last whorl, a P5 less developed, a more expanded columellar lip and a very scabrous surface. </p>
