Agathistoma fasciatum (Born, 1778), Smooth Atlantic Tegula Previously Tegula fasciata (Born, 1778)
A conversation on Conch-L:
10/12/22 Marlo: "Who can give us background of when Tegula fasciata (Born, 1778) became Agathistoma fasciatum (Born, 1778)?"
10/15/22 Harry Lee: "...DeVries (2007) seems to be the first to exalt Agathistoma Olsson & Harbison, 1953 to full generic rank as ... Dornellas et al. (2021) inferred." "The molecular genetic revelations of Dornellas et al. (2021) certainly provided convincing validation of the DeVries morphologic work."
