Status Prime (1860) established this name, listing Cyrena trigona Deshayes, 1824 in synonymy. It is unclear why a new name was established, since there is no junior homonymy [only with the younger Corbicula trigona Deshayes, 1855] and no explanation provided. Perhaps it is a simple misspelling. [details]
