senior synonym of Wilsoniconcha WENZ, 1939, but a comparison of specimens has still been necessary. Distribution — Galati, Rocche Rosse (East Sicily) , Upper Pliensbachian; Lókút, Kericser beds with Upper Sinemurian to Lower Pliensbachian (Obtusum to Ibex Zone) mixed fauna, and Lókút, Fenyveskút, Upper Pliensbachian (both Bakony Mts); St. Wolfgang, Schafberg (Austria), Upper Pliensbachian. E B Figure 80 — Cupaniella hiplicata M. GEMMELLARO, 1911. — A-D: apertural and dorsal views of the Schafberg specimen, A-B = xl, C—D = x4; E: the Lókút, Kericser specimen (natural, oblique cross-section), clearly showing the terminal part of the two plicae in the aperture; X4.

Lectotype — GBa 2008/69/24/1 (selected here). Material — Lots of specimens (220). Measurements H HL HP D W AA AL lectotype **37 **20 **29 57° 52° GBa 2008/69/24/2 *22.5 *14.5 **9 *18 **6.5 48° 41° Shape — Conical shell with feebly convex whorls separated by canaliculate suture. Periphery more or less sharply angular; this anguladon just overlapped by suture on juvenile shell but becoming more and more exposed with growth while suturai canal gradually deepen and widen. Base strongly convex and broadly phaneromphalous with rounded angulation at umbilical margin. Sculpture — Strong cord (weak carina) as most prominent ornamental element running on angulation. Between angulation and lower suture and on whole base dense, weaker spiral cords visible; all cords tubercled. Single spiral thread occasionally appears also immediately below suture. Thin growth-threads cross cords, usually two or three meet in one tubercle of near peripheral cords (typical "eucycloidean" ornament). Between angulation and upper suture, spiral ornament commonly lacking, only prosocline growth-threads give ornament. Remarks — STOLICZKA. (1861) and some subsequent authors (see synonyms list) identified this species with Trochus cupido D'ORBIGNY, 1853 (containing also T. nesea D'ORBIGNY, 1853). FISCHER & WEBER (1997) have given reliable photographs, which demonstrate on one hand that T. cupido, and T. nesea are well separable species and, on the other hand, the Hierlatz finds can not be identified with them. Eugclomphalus cupido has a higher spire of coeloconoidal outline and deeper, canaliculate suture along all whorls; Eugclomphalus nesea has much fewer and higher whorls with narrower umbilicus than Eugclomphalus hierlatzensis. VON AMMON (1892), establishing his new genus, Eugclomphalus, referred to OPPEL's recognition of the above specific differences, and gave the new genus and species name, Eugclomphalus hierlatzensis. G. G. GEALMELLARO (1874) also published Trochus cupido D'ORBIGNY, 1853 that resemble to Eugclomphalus hierlatzensis
