Porpites

Schlotheim, 1820, p. 349

Porpites Schlotheim, 1820, p. 349 is a nomen dubium (unavailable).

Remarks

Schlotheim (1820, p. 349-350) used the term "Porpiten" to combine Paleozoic and Mesozoic forms that had been known under the name Cyclolites Lamarck. Attempts to trace original Schlotheim material at e.g. the Humboldt Museum in Berlin, have been unsuccessful.
