Description

Tectura ? cf. taurinensis Sacco, 1897

Fig. 5M–N

Tectura taurinensis Sacco, 1897: 20, pl. 2 fig. 53.

Tectura cf. taurinensis – Cossmann & Peyrot 1917: 34, pl. 2 figs 47–49.

Tectura taurinensis – Ferrero Mortara et al. 1984: 279, pl. 51 fig. 3.

Material examined

ITALY – Tuscany • 1 spec.; Ca’ Cavalmagra; MSF 1310 (L = 2.4 mm).

Remarks

Sacco (1897) reported this species from the Turin hills and as being 4–6 mm long and up to 1.5 mm high. This matches the size of the specimen from Ca’ Cavalmagra. However, as protoconch and shell microstructure of this species remain unknown, its assignment to the patellogastropod Tectura remains tentative.

Stratigraphic and geographic range

Middle to Upper Miocene, northern Italy.
