Homonymy Possibly intended as a replacement name for the preoccupied Bulimus virgineus I. Lea. 1840, non Bruguière, 1789. However, under ICZN (1999) Article 58.15 (presence of absence of -i before a suffix or termination), B. virginieus would also be a junior homonym and likewise invalid [details]
Spelling Spelled Bulimus virginieus in the full description published in 1841. The earlier short description of 1840 had introduced the species as Bulimus virgineus [details]
