Biddulphia radiopunctata ‘Mann’ according to Mills 1933, p. 300
‘radio-punctata’
StatusInvalid
CommentsMills suggests that Mann 1925, p. 42, published the combination Biddulphia “radiopunctata” (sic) (A. Schmidt) Mann. This is an error: Mann only suggested a resemblance between T. “radio-puncatum Schmidt” (error for T. radiato-punctatum Schmidt 1886) and his new species Biddulphia madagascarensis, but did not publish the combination. Combination not accepted by Mills
