Classification Grimm & Grimm (2003) listed the species both as Mercuria glaberrima (p. 98) and Stenothyra glaberrima (p. 32, 114, 118, 122), but in the latter case with an incorrect authorship ("Schopp 1888", who clearly referred to Boettger). Both genus classifications (as well as the original one as Amnicola) appear doubtful and need revision. [details]
