Nomenclature Dillwyn - as many of his contemporaries - considered Linnaeus' Turbo terebra as the small European species. In that respect, he introduced Turbo archimedis for the large Pacific species today commonly known as Turritella terebra (Linnaeus, 1758).
Dillwyn's proposed name can be seen as a "replacement" for Turbo terebra var. y [gamma, auct] of Gmelin, 1791.
Mawe (1823: 149, 159, pl. 28 fig 3) subsequently used Dillwyn's proposed name in the same sense, being for a large species from China. [details]

Nomenclature Dillwyn - as many of his contemporaries - considered Linnaeus' Turbo terebra as the small European species. In that respect, he introduced Turbo archimedis for the large Pacific species today commonly known as Turritella terebra (Linnaeus, 1758). Dillwyn's proposed name can be seen as a "replacement" for Turbo terebra var. y [gamma, auct] of Gmelin, 1791.
