Truncatella pulchellaPfeiffer, 1839b, p. 356, [Faber 2004e, figs. 60-65] [Basis of the current name] Type Locality: Cuba, Nordküste [prope Matanzas et Cardenas (Pfeiffer 1856: 193) Range: 32.3°N to 9.47°S; 91°W to 34.9°W Depth: 0 m (live 0 m) Maximum Reported Size: 6.5 mm Distribution: USA: Florida: East Florida, West Florida; Mexico: Campeche State, Yucatan State, Quintana Roo; Bermuda, Bahamas: Abaco (Great or Little); Cuba: North Matanzas; Jamaica, Puerto Rico; Virgin Islands: St. Thomas; Brazil: Pernambuco, Alagoas References: Shuttleworth (1854); Rios (1975) S; Mello & Perrier (1986) E; Faber (2004e) T Comments: 28.2°N in east Florida (Mikkelsen et al. 1995). Pfeiffer (1856: 193) said "prope Matanzas et Cardenas!", the exclamation point meaning he had collected the material himself. As Pfeiffer visited Cuba only in 1839, and kept a diary of his trip recording localities (Pfeiffer 1854: 172), this must be taken as the type locality.

Truncatella bilabiataPfeiffer, 1840, p. 253, [Faber 2004e, figs. 51-59] [Synonym] Type Locality: Cuba [Nordküste, Pfeiffer 1839: 349; in ripa dextra ostii fluvii Canimar [Matanzas Province] (Pfeiffer 1856: 192)] Range: 32.3°N to 9.4°N; 91°W to 64.8°W Maximum Reported Size: 5.5 mm Distribution: USA: Florida: East Florida, West Florida, Florida Keys; Mexico: Campeche State, Yucatan State, Quintana Roo; Honduras, Panama, Bermuda, Bahamas: Grand Bahama Island, Abaco (Great or Little), Andros, New Providence, Eleuthera, Cat Island, Ragged Islands, Acklins Island, Mayaguana, Inagua (Great or Little); Turks and Caicos, Cuba: Pinar del Rio, Isla de la Juventud (Isle of Youth, Isle of Pines), North Matanzas, South Matanzas; Cayman Islands: Little Cayman, Cayman Brac; Jamaica, Haiti, Puerto Rico; Virgin Islands: St. Croix; St. Martin/St. Maarten, St. Barthelemy/St. Bartholomew, St. Kitts/St. Christopher, Martinique, Barbados References: Pfeiffer (1840) M; Clench & Turner (1948) N; Olsson & McGinty (1958) S; Usticke (1959) E; Torre (1960) s; Faber (2004e) T Comments: Pfeiffer (1856) stated "Habitat in insula Cuba, in ripa dextra ostii fluvii Canimar (Gundlach)." As Pfeiffer traveled with Gundlach (Pfeiffer 1839: 349), I take this to be the type locality of the species (G. Rosenberg 15 Nov 2006). Combining Genera: Acmea
