Cardium egmontianum Shuttleworth, 1856 (currently Trachycardiumegmontianum; Mollusca, Bivalvia, cardiidae): current usage conserved
Abstract

The Commission has ruled that the current usage of the specific name egmontianum for a common and widespread western Atlantic bivalve Trachycardium egmontianum (Shuttleworth, 1856) of the family cardiidae is conserved by setting aside all lectotype designations for Cardium mindanense Reeve, 1844 prior to that by Vidal (1998).
