Corbicula
Taxonomy
Corbicula was named by Megerle (1811) [Sepkoski's age data: K Camp R]. It is extant.
It was reranked as Cyrena (Corbicula) by Clark (1915) and Hassan (1953); it was reranked as Cyrene (Corbicula) by Clark and Arnold (1923).
It was assigned to Cyrene by Clark and Arnold (1923); to Cyrenidae by Durham (1944); to Cyrena by Clark (1915) and Hassan (1953); to Veneroida by Sepkoski (2002); to Corbiculidae by Oostingh (1935), Turner (1938), Adegoke (1977), Vokes (1980), Ward and Blackwelder (1987), Lamprell and Healy (1998), Squires (1999) and Bouchet et al. (2010); and to Corbiculinae by Matsubara et al. (2010).
