Taxonomy "Oliva nana Lamarck, 1811, described from the coast of Angola was included in the genus Olivancillaria by Fischer (1887) [note: this could not be traced in Manuel de conchyliologie] and later cited by many authors in the same genus (e.g. Dautzenberg 1912, Odhner 1923, Nickles 1950, Klappenbach 1965, Burnay & Conceição 1983, etc.). However, the presence of operculum excludes it from Olivancillaria. Abbott & Dance (1986) included it in Olivella, which appears to be a more accurate assignation." [details]
