Described from several localities in Sicily, Malta, Corsica, Sardinia, Algiers (Algeria), coasts of Barberia (Tunisia), Adriatic Sea, Prèveza (Greece). Remarks. Name proposed to replace Clathurella cordieri var. pungens B.D.D., 1882 ex Monterosato ms., non Raphitoma pungens Bellardi, 1877. The very worn figured specimen (B.D.D., 1882: 92, pl. 14 fig. 12) is the holotype (MNHN –IM–2000–3000). The material in the Monterosato collection, although of clear historical value, and useful to understand the concept of the species by Monterosato, is however not type material. Recorded by MolluscaBase (2018) as Raphitoma horrida (Monterosato, 1884).
