Status Morter (1984) stated that "'Neomiodon' elongatus has been ascribed to the genus Neomiodon (Casey in Dines, et al. 1969, p. 16) but this assignment cannot be confirmed as no hinge details have been observed." Consequently, the status and classification of this taxon remains uncertain. [details]
