Mangilia (Mangilia) melanitica Dall in Dall & Simpson, 1901, p. 390, pl. 58, fig. 10
[Synonym]

Depth: 13 to 86 m

Distribution: USA: Georgia, Florida: East Florida, West Florida; Puerto Rico, Surinam
References: Princz (1977) SE
Comments: Nude name in Bush (1885a, b) and Dall (1889b); Bush named N. oxia as a variety of melanitica before the latter had been described by Dall. She noted that Dall's MS material was from Florida. Dall (1889b) illustrated Bush's var. oxia, but not the nominate variety. The locality of the type of melanitica, USNM 83046, needs to be checked.
