This study is based on Cymenorytis COSSMANN 1888 specimens from several Italian and Spanish Pliocene localities. Two species, C. landaui and C. dellabellai, which were reported before correlated to Macromphalus brandenburgi (BOETTGER 1907), are described as new. C. brandenburgi is described and illustrated, on the basis of specimens from Ukraine and a comparison with a paratype from Costei, Romania, and this is the first report of this species for the Middle Miocene (Badenian) of Ukraine. C. landaui is known only from the Mediterranean Pliocene of Estepona (Spain), while C. dellabellai has a more wide distribution, the Mediterranean Pliocene (several N. Italian localities), and the European Atlantic Pliocene (Huelva, Spain).

Abstract
This study is based on Cymenorytis COSSMANN 1888 specimens from several Italian and Spanish Pliocene localities. Two species, C. landaui and C. dellabellai, which were reported before correlated to Macromphalus brandenburgi (BOETTGER 1907), are described as new. C. brandenburgi is described and illustrated, on the basis of specimens from Ukraine and a comparison with a paratype from Costei, Romania, and this is the first report of this species for the Middle Miocene (Badenian) of Ukraine. C. landaui is known only from the Mediterranean Pliocene of Estepona (Spain), while C. dellabellai has a more wide distribution, the Mediterranean Pliocene (several N. Italian localities), and the European Atlantic Pliocene (Huelva, Spain).I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
