The Commission has conserved the specific name
Murex rostratus Olivi, 1792 (currently
Fusinus rostratus) (Mollusca, Gastropoda, FASCIOLARIIDAE) by ruling that it is not invalid by reason of being a junior primary homonym of
Murex rostratus Solander in Brander, 1766 (currently
Turricula rostrata). The senior homonym is currently included in TURRIDAE and has not been considered congeneric with
Murex rostratus Olivi, 1792 after 1899.
