Abstract from Harzhauser/2008.

"Strombus coronatus Defrance, 1827 is considered a nomen protectum, and the cerithiid Strombus
coronatus
Ro¨ding, 1798 is demonstrated to be a nomen oblitum in accordance with the ICZN Article 23.9.1. The Late
Miocene to Early Pliocene Strombus coronatus Defrance is shown to belong to Persististrombus Kronenberg & Lee,
2007, and its relation with other Neogene strombids is briefly addressed. A lectotype for Strombus coronatus
Defrance is designated."

Welcome to the forum!  I just looked at your gallery, you have an exceptional collection (speaking as a fellow lover of shells).

Hi Don,

thank you very much, you're very kind. :hammer01:

I've been collecting molluscs since I was a kid. Unfortunately in these outcrops, now it is no longer possible to look for fossils (actually natural park).

Yeah, Strombus coronatus (my avatar). In my specimen are still present the original colors of the shell ;-)

Thank you doushantuo :-)

These specimens, in this outcrop, are very fragile.

What means "Btw" please ?

 

You have a very nice collection ! From Italy ? I thought that it was forbidden to look for fossils in Italy, but that doesn't maybe concern invertebrates...

thanks Coco! Yes, it 's forbidden to look for fossils. My collection dates back to the 80's and is regularly denounced :-) 

Currently all sites are geological reserve :hammer01:
