03A7D746F073FFA1FF3DFBF3FB29F9D2.taxon	discussion	Discussion. This species was introduced by Pană (2003) for a Pliocene taxon from the Dacian Basin. It is a primary homonym of Theodoxus dacicus Jekelius, 1944 (p. 114), a different species described from the Late Miocene of Soceni in the Pannonian Basin. The Miocene species was classified by Papp (1953, p. 99) as a subspecies of T. leobersdorfensis (Handmann, 1887). When introducing this species Pană (2003) referred to it as " Theodoxus (Theodoxus) dacicus n. sp. Pană 1989 ". This leads to some confusion, since she properly described and illustrated the taxon and indicated a holotype in 2003, but gave no reference to a work from 1989. The only publication from Pană (1989) known to us deals with different taxa. Maybe she introduced the name (as nomen nudum) in an unpublished thesis.	en	Neubauer, Thomas A., Harzhauser, Mathias, Georgopoulou, Elisavet, Mandic, Oleg, Kroh, Andreas (2014): Replacement names and nomenclatural comments for problematic species-group names in Europe's Neogene freshwater Gastropoda.

03A7D746F073FFA2FF3DF974FB50FEFF.taxon	discussion	Discussion. Pavlović (1931, p. 27) introduced " Neritodonta brusinai var. rugosa " for a Pontian taxon from Serbia. According to Wenz (1929, p. 2934) Neritodonta Brusina, 1884 is a junior synonym of Calvertia Bourguignat, 1880, which is treated as a subgenus of Theodoxus (see also Papp 1953, p. 91). Therefore, Theodoxus (Calvertia) rugosa Pană, 2003 is a secondary homonym of Theodoxus (Calvertia) rugosus (Pavlović, 1931). Later, Milošević (1983, p. 140) elevated the variety to the species level. Additionally, the gender of the species epithet was erroneously introduced as feminine by Pană (2003), while Theodoxus is clearly masculine. In the figure caption the genus was wrongly given as " Theodoxis ".	en	Neubauer, Thomas A., Harzhauser, Mathias, Georgopoulou, Elisavet, Mandic, Oleg, Kroh, Andreas (2014): Replacement names and nomenclatural comments for problematic species-group names in Europe's Neogene freshwater Gastropoda.

In this particular case the rule of " difference in spelling of generic names " (ICZN 1999, Article 57.5) applies: Vivipara as given by Stefanescu (1897) represents an incorrect subsequent spelling of Viviparus Montfort, 1810 (Melville & Smith 1987, p. 185). The species is thus a primary homonym of Viviparus muscelensis (Stefanescu, 1897) and needed a replacement name (see also Wenz 1928, p. 2345).	en	Neubauer, Thomas A., Harzhauser, Mathias, Georgopoulou, Elisavet, Mandic, Oleg, Kroh, Andreas (2014): Replacement names and nomenclatural comments for problematic species-group names in Europe's Neogene freshwater Gastropoda.

03A7D746F071FFA3FF3DFAA4FA27F8AB.taxon	discussion	Discussion. The species by Anistratenko constitutes a secondary homonym of Melanopsis cylindrica (Stoliczka, 1862). The latter species was introduced within Lyrcaea (misspelt " Lyrcea " by Stoliczka), which is considered a junior synonym of Melanopsis (Wenz 1929, p. 2647). Today it is undoubtedly referred to Melanopsis.	en	Neubauer, Thomas A., Harzhauser, Mathias, Georgopoulou, Elisavet, Mandic, Oleg, Kroh, Andreas (2014): Replacement names and nomenclatural comments for problematic species-group names in Europe's Neogene freshwater Gastropoda.

Although both taxa have been recombined since then, the junior name is permanently invalid according to ICZN (1999, Article 57.2) and needs a replacement name. Micromelania carinata Andrusov, 1890 has been recombined as Turricaspia carinata (source of recombination unclear; see Iljina et al. 1976) and " Micromelania carinata Gillet & Geissert, 1971 " as Pyrgula carinata by Rust (1997, p. 114). We follow the revised systematic placement and introduce the replacement name within the genus Pyrgula. None of the mentioned taxa should be confused with two other new hydrobiid species introduced by Gillet & Geissert (1971), Hydrobia carinata (p. 131) and Caspia carinata (p. 136).	en	Neubauer, Thomas A., Harzhauser, Mathias, Georgopoulou, Elisavet, Mandic, Oleg, Kroh, Andreas (2014): Replacement names and nomenclatural comments for problematic species-group names in Europe's Neogene freshwater Gastropoda.

03A7D746F077FFA5FF3DFC47FBE8F92C.taxon	discussion	Discussion. The status as a (secondary) homonym depends on the controversial generic and subgeneric affiliations of the involved species. Pavlović (1931, p. 27) introduced this species within the genus Neritodonta Brusina, 1884 (see also Milošević 1962). As stated above, Neritodonta is a junior synonym of Calvertia Bourguignat, 1880, which is treated as a subgenus of Theodoxus (see also Wenz 1929, p. 2934). The older species was introduced as Neritina brusinai Andrusov, 1909 and newly combined as Theodoxus (Ninnia) brusinai by Wenz (1929, p. 2986). Therefore, Theodoxus (Calvertia) brusinai (Pavlović, 1931) would be secondary homonym of Theodoxus (Ninnia) brusinai (Andrusov, 1909). However, Ninnia Brusina, 1902 was meanwhile elevated to genus level based on differences of shell and ontogeny (Bandel 2001, p. 128). A replacement name is thus not necessary at present. Another Theodoxus species formally constituting a secondary homonym is Theodoxus (Calvertia) depressus Taner, 1974. The species-group name " depressus " in combination with Theodoxus is already in use for a taxon from the Pleistocene of Kos Island, introduced as " Neritina Fuchsi var. depressa " by Magrograssi (1928) and recombined as Theodoxus doricus depressus (Magrograssi, 1928) by Willmann (1981, p. 149). Wesselingh et al. (2008, p. 865), however, consider the species described by Taner (1974) as junior synonym of Theodoxus bukowskii (Oppenheim, 1919), thus we refrain from introducing a replacement name.	en	Neubauer, Thomas A., Harzhauser, Mathias, Georgopoulou, Elisavet, Mandic, Oleg, Kroh, Andreas (2014): Replacement names and nomenclatural comments for problematic species-group names in Europe's Neogene freshwater Gastropoda.

03A7D746F074FFA6FF3DFADDFAE0F81C.taxon	discussion	Discussion. The species name Hydrobia subprotracta Jekelius, 1944 is a primary homonym of Hydrobia subprotracta Zhizhchenko, 1936 and therefore unavailable. Formally, a replacement name is needed here. We refrain from such a nomenclatural act because of following reason: H. subprotracta Jekelius, 1944 is herein considered synonymous with H. subprotracta alpha Jekelius, 1944. The name " alpha " was fully spelled out by Jekelius (1944) and does not denote an infrasubspecific taxon; it is thus available as a species-group name (see also ICZN 1999, Article 45.6.4). Apart from stronger convex whorls as indicated by the description and illustrations of Jekelius (1944), it fully corresponds to " H. subprotracta Jekelius, 1944 ". Following this, " alpha " is the first and only available name for the taxon. We simply avoid introducing a replacement name for Hydrobia subprotracta Jekelius, 1944, not to add another (redundant) name to the already existing bulk and confusing later workers.	en	Neubauer, Thomas A., Harzhauser, Mathias, Georgopoulou, Elisavet, Mandic, Oleg, Kroh, Andreas (2014): Replacement names and nomenclatural comments for problematic species-group names in Europe's Neogene freshwater Gastropoda.

03A7D746F074FFA6FF3DFF7FFBC3FC04.taxon	discussion	Discussion. When introducing the new name V. dezmanianus dacicus, Lubenescu & Zazuleac (1985) included the record " Vivipara dezmaniana Fontannes (non Brusina) " in the synonymy list. Although they did not discuss it, they obviously wanted to denote that Fontannes's identification was wrong and his specimens do not represent V. dezmanianus Brusina, 1874, but another taxon — the one they newly introduced. Apparently they overlooked that Fontannes (1887, p. 342) did not refer to V. dezmanianus but actually introduced a new variety. Lubenescu & Zazuleac (1985) might have been misled by the species heading, saying " Vivipara dezmaniana, Brusina ", followed by several citations of other works mentioning this species. In the end of this confusing synonymy list Fontannes, however, clearly stated " Var. Turbureensis, Fontannes " (also mentioned like this in the figure captions). This taxon was illustrated and properly described in the following passage and thus is available. Hence, Lubenescu & Zazuleac (1985) introduced a new name for an already existing and described subspecies. As both names (dacicus and turbureensis) are based on different objects, they are not objective synonyms and both names are available. However, the taxonomic decision by Lubenescu & Zazuleac (1985) to synonymize the record of Fontannes is maintained. Following ICZN rules, Viviparus dezmanianus dacicus Lubenescu & Zazuleac, 1985 thus needs to be referred to as a junior synonym of Viviparus dezmanianus turbureensis Fontannes, 1887.	en	Neubauer, Thomas A., Harzhauser, Mathias, Georgopoulou, Elisavet, Mandic, Oleg, Kroh, Andreas (2014): Replacement names and nomenclatural comments for problematic species-group names in Europe's Neogene freshwater Gastropoda.

As Goniochilus Sandberger, 1875 is repeatedly treated as subgenus of Micromelania Brusina, 1874 (e. g., Pavlović 1928; Papp 1953; Bartha & Soós 1955; Marinescu 1973; Schütt & Besenecker 1973; Lueger 1980) this species-group name would be another potential secondary homonym of Micromelania carinata Andrusov, 1890 (see discussion of respective species above). Currently, Goniochilus is treated as separate genus (see Harzhauser et al. 2002).	en	Neubauer, Thomas A., Harzhauser, Mathias, Georgopoulou, Elisavet, Mandic, Oleg, Kroh, Andreas (2014): Replacement names and nomenclatural comments for problematic species-group names in Europe's Neogene freshwater Gastropoda.

03A7D746F075FFA7FF3DFE7AFCFEFA00.taxon	discussion	Discussion. There are several problems with this species. The first and most crucial point is that it is formally a nomen nudum. While Pană (1990) introduced two new subspecies, she did not describe the species itself. The two subspecies are still validly introduced as species-group names. Secondly, there are many misspellings (lecrenthey, loerenthey, loeerenthey) in the publication. Concerning the derivatio nominis section and considering the rules of the ICZN the name should be " lorentheyi ". According to the ICZN (1999, Articles 32.5.1 and 33.2.2), these incorrect original spellings (being either lapsus calami or copyist's or printer's errors) would have to be corrected — which is not necessary here, as the name is a nomen nudum and formally not available. A similar case is mentioned by Welter-Schultes (2012, p. 382) for the terrestrial snail Oxychilus draparnaudi (Beck, 1837). This species was neither described nor indicated in the original publication (Beck 1837, p. 6), while the varieties gallica and italica were indeed indicated with bibliographic references. Welter-Schultes (2012) argues that the name draparnaudi was made available under ICZN Article 12.1, because it had an indication for a subordinate taxon that was included originally and this article does not demand a description for the nominal taxon. While it is true that the Code states in the glossary that " a taxon encompasses all taxa of lower rank ", we would like to point out that the situation is a bit more complicated. According to the Principle of Coordination (Article 46), all taxa in the species group are deemed to be simultaneously established at every possible rank within the species group. Therefore, the names carinatus and nodosus, originally proposed as subspecies of lorentheyi, are speciesgroup taxa too and thus not subordinate taxa of lorentheyi in a nomenclatural sense. Hence, their descriptions cannot serve as definition for the undescribed nominal form lorentheyi. To do so would imply that one or both are synonymized with lorentheyi, which would be a taxonomic but not a nomenclatural act. The situation in O. draparnaudi, in contrast, was solved by ICZN (1955, Op. 336), which made the name available. Consequently, the only two taxa available are as follows:	en	Neubauer, Thomas A., Harzhauser, Mathias, Georgopoulou, Elisavet, Mandic, Oleg, Kroh, Andreas (2014): Replacement names and nomenclatural comments for problematic species-group names in Europe's Neogene freshwater Gastropoda.

03A7D746F07AFFA8FF3DFD62FBCDF815.taxon	discussion	Discussion. The name Melanopsis costata was introduced by Olivier (1804) for an extant taxon and is still valid and accepted. Fuchs (1870 a) misidentified a different species from the Late Miocene locality Rădmăneşti in Romania, classifying it as " Melanopsis costata Fér. ". To rectify this error, Brusina (1884, p. 168) introduced a new name, i. e. Melanopsis fuchsi Brusina, 1884. Since he explicitly referred to the description of Fuchs (1870 a), the species M. fuchsi was correctly indicated and is not a nomen nudum as stated by Wenz (1929, p. 2745). However, this name again is a primary homonym of M. fuchsi Handmann, 1882. Pallary (1916, p. 83) summarized the nomenclatural problems and introduced Melanopsis hungarica Pallary, 1916 as new name for M. fuchsi Brusina, 1884 non Handmann, 1882. This is the third homonym for the very same species, as the name is preoccupied by M. hungarica Kormos, 1904. Strausz (1941) introduced the only valid name, Melanopsis confusa, as replacement name for M. hungarica Pallary, 1916 non Kormos, 1904 (see also Strausz 1942, p. 91). Seemingly unaware of this publication, Gillet & Marinescu (1971, p. 55) repeated the very same nomenclatural act and introduced Melanopsis (Canthidomus) jekeliusi as new name for M. hungarica Pallary, 1916 non Kormos, 1904. Following ICZN (1999, Article 61.3.4) this name is an objective synonym. The records of " Melanopsis costata Férussac, 1823 " in Neumayr (1869, p. 372), Neumayr & Paul (1875, p. 41) and many others (see Wenz 1929, p. 2648) for Slavonian (E Croatian) species trace back to an error made by Férussac. In his monograph on the recent and fossil melanopsids, he wrote " Mel. costata, nobis " (Férussac 1823, p. 156) despite citing the first description of Olivier (1804) in the synonymy list. Maybe he wanted to denote that he places this species within Melanopsis, while Olivier described it as " Melania costata ". However, the records by Neumayr and others neither refer to Melanopsis costata (Olivier, 1804) nor to Melanopsis confusa Strausz, 1941. These misidentifications were already detected and clarified by Pallary (1916, p. 80), who proposed the new name Melanopsis cosmanni [sic] for these misidentified specimens (ranked as subspecies of Melanopsis abbreviata Brusina, 1874 in Wenz 1929, p. 2648). Since the name was clearly erected in honor of Maurice Cossmann, the correct name has to be " cossmanni " (justified emendation following ICZN Article 33.2).	en	Neubauer, Thomas A., Harzhauser, Mathias, Georgopoulou, Elisavet, Mandic, Oleg, Kroh, Andreas (2014): Replacement names and nomenclatural comments for problematic species-group names in Europe's Neogene freshwater Gastropoda.

03A7D746F078FFAAFF3DFD6DFBB0FB04.taxon	discussion	Discussion. Melanopsis turrita Handmann, 1882 is considered a junior subjective synonym of M. bouei bouei by Wenz (1929, p. 2674). Jekelius (1944) seemingly ignored this and treated it still as Melanopsis turrita in the discussions. Papp (1953) later ranked it as a subspecies of M. pygmaea Hörnes, 1856. This is also followed by Fordinál (1997) and Mikuž (2005). However, is has been overlooked so far that M. turrita Handmann, 1887 displays a primary homonym of the extant species M. turrita Rossmässler, 1854 (not " Bourguignat, 1884 " as given by Pallary 1916; see also Bourguignat 1884, p. 163), for which Pallary (1916) invented the replacement name Melanopsis hispidula. We follow the latest taxonomic opinion and rank it as a subspecies of M. pygmaea.	en	Neubauer, Thomas A., Harzhauser, Mathias, Georgopoulou, Elisavet, Mandic, Oleg, Kroh, Andreas (2014): Replacement names and nomenclatural comments for problematic species-group names in Europe's Neogene freshwater Gastropoda.

Here both taxa are considered synonymous.	en	Neubauer, Thomas A., Harzhauser, Mathias, Georgopoulou, Elisavet, Mandic, Oleg, Kroh, Andreas (2014): Replacement names and nomenclatural comments for problematic species-group names in Europe's Neogene freshwater Gastropoda.

03A7D746F079FFACFF3DFBB5FD8FFD6A.taxon	description	From a nomenclatural as well as a taxonomic view this is of course not tenable. It means that either the various specimens belong to two different species or the diagnostic features of the two genera are not meaningful. The associated problems were clear to the author as became evident from personal correspondence: Bandel (pers. comm.) stated the possibility that " Planorbis varians " is actually represented by two species, which would have to be assigned variably to Muellerpalia or Marinescugyra based on their protoconchs. Unfortunately, this discussion is wanting in the paper. However, it turned out that the two combinations indeed refer to different species. The specimens illustrated by Bandel (2010) as " Marinescugyra varians " (pl. 13, figs 153 – 158) undoubtedly refer to the same species as described by Fuchs (1870 a). They correspond in the two strong keels, the intermediate spiral lines, the slightly concave umbilical part, and the weakly stepped funnel-like apical part. In contrast, the individuals depicted as " Muellerpalia varians " (Bandel 2010, pl. 8, figs 90 – 95) belong to a different species: they have both keels on the umbilical side, apparently lack additional spiral lines, have highly convex whorls, and more distinct growth lines. Direct comparison of the descriptions and illustrations of Fuchs (1870 a, b) and Bandel (2010) suggest that Bandel confused several species. Firstly, " Muellerpalia varians " sensu Bandel rather corresponds to " Valvata bicincta Fuchs, 1870 " in Fuchs (1870 b) [= Muellerpalia bicincta (Fuchs, 1870)]. Secondly, specimens illustrated as " Muellerpalia bicincta " by Bandel rather resemble " Valvata carinata Fuchs, 1870 " in Fuchs (1870 b) [= Muellerpalia carinata (Fuchs, 1870)]. Conversely, Muellerpalia carinata (Fuchs, 1870) sensu Bandel, 2010 may represent Muellerpalia bicincta. The new combinations of both latter taxa with the new genus Muellerpalia still remain valid. The presence of a second, fainter keel on the umbilical side in " Muellerpalia varians " sensu Bandel (2010) [= Muellerpalia bicincta (Fuchs, 1870)], which is not discernible in the original material of Fuchs (1870 a), is regarded as intraspecific variability herein, as all other features correspond quite well. Unfortunately, Bandel did not provide an illustration of the apical region, which would show a distinct keel if our determination as M. bicincta is correct. Nevertheless, the endpoint of keel-like structure is visible in the apertural view (Bandel 2010, pl. 8, fig. 94). Even if it might turn out that this tentative placement is wrong, it still remains well separated from Marinescugyra varians. In conclusion, the genus Marinescugyra, with Planorbis varians Fuchs, 1870 as type species, remains valid and the combination Marinescugyra varians (Fuchs, 1870) is the only accepted one. The combination Muellerpalia varians (Fuchs, 1870) is based on a misidentification of the species. We tentatively synonymize this record with Muellerpalia bicincta (Fuchs, 1870).	en	Neubauer, Thomas A., Harzhauser, Mathias, Georgopoulou, Elisavet, Mandic, Oleg, Kroh, Andreas (2014): Replacement names and nomenclatural comments for problematic species-group names in Europe's Neogene freshwater Gastropoda.
