SCHLOTHEIM (1920, rect. 1922), the denominator, gave no information at all about the internal morphology of the taxon. The internal morphology of topotypical specimens from Bavaria is unknown to the present day. Consequently, opinions vary: which of the typical forms with bifurcating ribs can be marked with this name, those that are coming from the lower parts ofthe Eocene (DOUVILLE 1922, NEUMANN 1958) or those that are from the upper parts of the Eocene (SCHLUMBERGER 1904, KECSKEMETI 1959). In our opinion, for the first forms the "bayani" name is far better, since its internal morphology is known on the basis of topotypical specimens, whereas for the latter forms the "furcata" and "rovasendai"names can be used, in the usage of which duality, similar to that, of "patellaris", was not experienced. For these reasons it seems expedient to abolish this name."
