Editor's comment Probably one of a number of misuses of the original name. Combination probably created using Montagu's 'corrugata' spirorbin name sensu Caullery & Mesnil (1879), and as such is a misidentification. Bush (1905) placed these usages as her Spirorbis pseudocorrugatus, now in Neodexiospira [details]
