Status Bouillet (1834) used the suffix "antiqua ?" (always with question mark) for several species illustrated in his work (including several in the genus Helix). Obviously, they were not intended as new names but to indicate a taxon's fossil state. Therefore, they should not be considered available names and cannot consistute junior homonyms. Wenz (1923) seemed to follow the same concept and listed the nameas synonym of the younger Helix denainvillieri [sic] de Boissy, 1839. [details]

Status Bouillet (1834) used the suffix "antiqua ?" (always with question mark) for several species illustrated in his work (including several in the genus Helix). Obviously, they were not intended as new names but to indicate a taxon's fossil state. Therefore, they should not be considered available names and cannot consistute junior homonyms. Wenz (1923) seemed to follow the same concept and listed the nameas synonym of the younger Helix denainvillieri [sic] de Boissy, 1839. [details]
