Gastropoda - Murchisoniina - Gosseletinidae
This is is a mess: Szabo based the genus Cyclostomaria on material identified as Pleurotomaria seussii. However, it turns out that these specimens were misidentified due to the poor material known for P. seussi. Szabo sets up a new species here, which is the type of the genus. Ugh
