Abstract

This paper introduces new European Cenozoic muricids coming mainly from different French basins (Paris, Aquitaine, Loire and Normandy). Firstly, 24 species are described: Muricopsis pontileviensis n. sp., Muricopsis neraudeaui n. sp., Favartia jansseni n. sp., Dermomurex (Gracilimurex) ligerianus n. sp., Trubatsa ganensis n. sp., Trubatsa calviniacensis n. sp., Timbellus magnificus n. sp., Timbellus occidentalis n. sp., Timbellus calciacus n. sp., Timbellus longicanalis n. sp., Timbellus magnei n. name (for Murex trigonus Rouault, 1850, not Gmelin, 1791), Timbellus sixi n. sp., Timbellus curvispina n. sp., Timbellus radulfiensis n. sp., Timbellus submicropterus n. sp., Ponderia remyi n. sp., Pterynotus (Pterymarchia) gaasensis n. sp., P. (Pterymarchia) pelouatensis n. sp., Textiliomurex chodmonensis n. sp., Flexopteron constantinense n. sp., F. liancurtense n. sp., Crassimurex (Pliocrassimurex) hirtus n. subgen., n. sp., Nucellopsis parisiensis n. sp. and Pronucellopsis pacaudi Merle, Ledon & Goret, n. gen., n. sp. Secondly, four genera and one subgenus are described: Paleochicoreus Merle, n. gen. (type species: Chicoreus (Phyllonotus) initialis Vokes, 1990), Beyregrex Merle, n. gen. (type species: Murex pereger Beyrich, 1854), Pseudotrophonopsis Merle, n. gen. (type species: Buccinum defossum Pilkington, 1804), Pronucellopsis Merle, n. gen. (type species: Pronucellopsis pacaudi Merle, Ledon & Goret, n. gen., n. sp.) and Crassimurex (Pliocrassimurex) n. subgen. (type species: Crassimurex (Pliocrassimurex) hirtus n. subgen., n. sp.). Thirdly, based on a phylogenetic analysis one new subfamily is erected for a clade of fossil genera that are not closely related to extant subfamilies: Nucellopsinae Merle, n. subfam. (type genus: Nucellopsis Merle, 2005c) including Nucellopsis and Pronucellopsis Merle, n. gen. In addition, a neotype for Murex tripteroides Lamarck, 1822, Murex tricarinatus Lamarck, 1803 and a lectotype for Murex fusoides Deshayes, 1865 and Murex sandbergeri (Hörnes, 1856) are designated.
