Taxonomy This generic name has been repeatedly used for species currently placed in Volvulella Newton, 1891. The figure provided by Montfort may resemble Volvulella acuminata but Montfort refers to Soldani (1789, vol. 1 pl. 1C) which clearly represents a juvenile Bulla collected at Porto Ferraio (Elba Is., Italy), and the drawing is obviously copied from there. Soldani's figure on pl. 1G is Volvulella acuminata but is not referred by Montfort. [details]
