Clausilia costata var. subcostata Bellini 1908
No full textClausilia costata var. subcostata Bellini, 1908a: 14 [ex Tiberi ms.] Type locality: Ischia Island (Naples, Italy). Original description: “stries peu visibles” [more visible striae—with respect to an unknown clausilid, reported as Clausilia costata Ziegler]. Remarks: having been instituted on the basis of insignificant morphological characteristics, we rank it infrasubspecific, and thus not available (ICZN 2012: Art. 10.2, 45.5, 45.6, glossary). Clausilia costata var. subcostata Bellini, 1908 would also be a primary homonym of Clausilia costata subsp. subcostata Boettger, 1879. Cochlodina costata (Pfeiffer, 1828) does not occur in southern Italy (Welter-Schultes 2012); this taxon was not figured by Bellini (1908a), and thus we are not able to understand what he actually described.Published as part of Fasulo, Giuseppe, Duraccio, Sergio, Federico, Antonio & Crocetta, Fabio, 2019, The (almost) unknown Italian naturalist Raffaello Bellini (1874 - 1930): biography malacological publications, and status of his recent molluscan taxa, pp. 343-369 in Zootaxa 4668 (3) on page 357, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4668.3.3, http://zenodo.org/record/344956

Cardium (Parvicardium) exiguum var. minimum Bellini 1903
No full textCardium (Parvicardium) exiguum var. minimum Bellini, 1903a: 23, 26, fig. 8 (Fig. 4I: left) Type locality: Fusaro Lake (Bacoli, Tyrrhenian Sea, Italy). Original description: “dimensioni piccolissime” [very small sizes]. Remarks: having been instituted on the basis of insignificant morphological characteristics, we rank it infrasubspecific, and thus not available (ICZN 2012: Art. 10.2, 45.5, 45.6, glossary). Despite this, it was listed as a variety of Parvicardium exiguum (Gmelin, 1791) by Hyllelberg (2004). It would be also preoccupied by Cardium minimum Philippi, 1836. Interestingly, this variety was then skipped by Bellini (1929a) in the general overview of the marine molluscan species living in the Gulf of Naples. This taxon was based on a juvenile shell of P. exiguum, a species that was found again during samplings held in the area in 1975–2018 (Ferro & Russo 1982; authors’ unpublished data).Published as part of Fasulo, Giuseppe, Duraccio, Sergio, Federico, Antonio & Crocetta, Fabio, 2019, The (almost) unknown Italian naturalist Raffaello Bellini (1874 - 1930): biography malacological publications, and status of his recent molluscan taxa, pp. 343-369 in Zootaxa 4668 (3) on pages 355-356, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4668.3.3, http://zenodo.org/record/344956
Pseudomurex meyendorffi var. caprensis Bellini 1929
No full textPseudomurex meyendorffi var. caprensis Bellini, 1929a: 38 Type locality: Capri Island (Naples, Tyrrhenian Sea, Italy). Original description: “la forma di Capri, non rara a profondità, è corta, rigonfia e differisce da quella non solo tipica, ma di altre località mediterranee” [the variety from Capri—of Coralliophila meyendorffii (Calcara, 1845), reported as Pseudomurex meyendorffi Calcara —, not rare at depths, is short and swollen, and differs from both the typical shells and the ones from other Mediterranean localities]. Remarks: having been instituted as a geographic race, we rank it subspecific, and thus available (ICZN 2012: Art. 10, glossary). Listed as a simple variety or a synonym of Coralliophila meyendorffii (Calcara, 1845) by several authors (Sabelli et al. 1992; Fasulo 2012), despite no figures ever being published by Bellini (1929a). Spano et al. (2002) listed it as a valid species, “ C [oralliophila] caprensis ”, but with no further comment or description. The original description may easily fit other Mediterranean taxa than C. meyendorffii, the closer ones being Coralliophila brevis (Blainville, 1832) and Coralliophila panormitana (Monterosato, 1869) due to original description and declared depth. Thus, it is considered a nomen dubium (ICZN 2012: glossary).Published as part of Fasulo, Giuseppe, Duraccio, Sergio, Federico, Antonio & Crocetta, Fabio, 2019, The (almost) unknown Italian naturalist Raffaello Bellini (1874 - 1930): biography malacological publications, and status of his recent molluscan taxa, pp. 343-369 in Zootaxa 4668 (3) on page 353, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4668.3.3, http://zenodo.org/record/344956
Gastrana fragilis var. rarilamellosa Bellini 1903
No full textGastrana fragilis var. rarilamellosa Bellini, 1903a: 27 Type locality: not specified [inferred as presumably described from Phlaegrean lagoons (Fusaro Lake, Lucrino Lake, and Miseno Lake, Bacoli / Pozzuoli area, Tyrrhenian Sea, Italy)]. Original description: “strie più larghe e più distanti; forma dipendente dal polimorfismo di questa specie” [shell with wider and more distant striae—with respect to Gastrana fragilis (Linnaeus, 1758), reported as Gastrana fragilis L. —; a form depending from the polymorphism of this species]. Remarks: having been instituted on the basis of insignificant morphological characteristics, we rank it infrasubspecific, and thus not available (ICZN 2012: Art. 10.2, 45.5, 45.6, glossary). This seems to be an overlooked taxon, never reported after its original description apart by Bellini (1929a) in his general overview of the marine molluscan species living in the Gulf of Naples. Taking into account the absence of congeneric and/or similar species from the Gulf of Naples and generally the Mediterranean Sea, as well as the fact that this species is commonly encountered in the Phlaegrean lagoons (authors’ unpublished data), we are prone to consider that it was truly described as based on Gastrana fragilis (Linnaeus, 1758).Published as part of Fasulo, Giuseppe, Duraccio, Sergio, Federico, Antonio & Crocetta, Fabio, 2019, The (almost) unknown Italian naturalist Raffaello Bellini (1874 - 1930): biography malacological publications, and status of his recent molluscan taxa, pp. 343-369 in Zootaxa 4668 (3) on page 356, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4668.3.3, http://zenodo.org/record/344956
