Note Dall fixed Solecurtus mollis G.B. Sowerby,...
Type species Dall fixed Solecurtus mollis G.B. Sowerby, 1874, as the type species by original designation. Huber (2010, Conchylia, 41(1): 9) showed that Dall had misidentified the type species, and that Clunaculum dalli Huber, 2010, was meant, and he designated
the latter as type species. However, he failed to refer to Art. 70.3, and his type designation is invalid. [details]
