| Abstract |
Some taxonomically troublesome nominal taxa of the rissoid genus Alvania Risso, 1826 are examined: Alvania disparilis Monterosato, 1890, A. peloritana (Aradas & Benoit, 1874), A. perversa F. Nordsieck, 1972 and A. dorbignyi (Audouin, 1826). The four species are here considered as valid, and for the sake of nomenclatural stability lectotypes of Alvania disparilis, Rissoa peloritana and Alvania perversa are designated. The holotype of Alvania dorbignyi is refigured and redescribed, and all Mediterranean records of this species are reassigned to A. perversa. Alvania schwartziana Brusina, 1866 is reported for the first time in Italian waters. Three new species are herein described: Alvania bartolinorum n. sp., Alvania unica n. sp. and Alvania zaraensis n. sp. |
