Taxonomic remark Brusina (1902) listed the taxon "M. croatica decostata" in his account of Tertiary fossil mollusks of SE Europe. Although Brusina marked it as new (asterisk), he probably did not intend to introduce a new subspecies. More likely, he referred to the species of Penecke (1884), which he had ranked as subspecies of M. croatica already in an earlier work (Brusina 1897). Both Brusina's (1902) and Penecke's (1884) specimens look very similar and derive from the same region in NE Croatia. Therefore, Brusina's (1902) record should not be regarded as a separate taxon.
