Description
Oligodonta Paul, 1941 [nomen nudum]
Original source
Paul (1941): 130.
Remarks
Nomen nudum – Paul mentioned and used the subgenus in his Fossilium Catalogus but did not provide a description. Originally questionably classified as a subgenus of Grammatodon. Paul (1941) classified Myalina goldfussiana De Koninck, 1842 and Modiola illinoiensis Worthen, 1884 in the new subgenus, but did not indicate a type species.
