Pseudotritonium venustum (Münster, 1841)
Kittl (1894) mentioned three specimens in total, including the original specimen from Münster’s collection (Münster 1841). He also included in P. venustum one more shell described as P. karreri by Laube (1868). The species description by Zardini (1978) was based on eight specimens; however, their identification appears to be questionable since he apparently misidentified his specimens (see remarks to P. laubei). Our recent collection efforts in the St. Cassian Formation have failed to yield new specimens of this species.
Pseudotritonium karreri (Laube, 1868) Synonymized with P. venustus by Kittl (1894).
