REMARKS

Specific identity is difficult to establish due to lack of protoconch in the studied material. Here tentatively assigned to Petaloconchus intortus (Lamarck, 1818), a common species in fossil faunas from North West Europe. The modern species Petaloconchus glomeratus (Linnaeus, 1758) is similar to P.intortus except for the protoconch, absent in the specimens from Selsoif. For further discussion see Landau et al. (2018: 246).
