Homonymy Columbella (Mitrella) gracilis Ivolas & Peyrot, 1900, from the middle Miocene of the Loire Basin, is a secondary senior homonym. However, ongoing molecular data show that Mitrella is not monophyletic (deMaintenon & Strong, 2022). We therefore refrain from establishing a replacement name at this moment, as M. gracilis K. Monsecour & D. Monsecour, 2016 will most likely prove not be congeneric with M. gracilis (Ivolas & Peyrot, 1900)] (Monsecour & Monsecour 2023: 214) [details]
