INTRODUCTION

The reorganization of the fossil material stored in thePalaeontological Museum of “La Sapienza” Universityof Rome, has required a considerable effort and still willrequire for much time. Such a work is not simple andtime consuming because it is always necessary to verifythe correspondence between the specimen and its label.Besides, sometimes this work is a very exacting test,because a specimen can be difficult to recognize due, forexample, to historical events (during the Second WorldWar, a bomb shot this museum: many labels and manyfossils were destroyed or damaged), to environmentalfactors (in 1870, the museum depository was flooded bythe Tiber river: many labels were destroyed or dam-aged), to accidental factors (breakage, mineralogicaldeterioration, etc.) or to study factors (cut, polishing, ori-ented section etc.). For example, the specimens ofSauvagesia sanfilippoi Parona, 1933 (MPUR: i.123-125), showed by Parona as an entire piece, were cut andseparated one from one other probably by Parona him-self. The main difficulty was to understand that eachspecimen in reality pertained to the single piece shownby Parona (1933: Pl. 1, Fig. 1). In other cases, the spec-imens have been figured incorrectly. For example thespecimen of Ranina propinqua Ristori, 1891 was figuredas a mirror image.

Finally, it is very important to verify whether a speci-men was studied and/or figured.

This work represents a first contribution towards aninventory of the types, which are all refigured here. Foreach type the main data are given. Subsequent designa-tions are not reported.

SHORT HISTORY OF THE MUSEUM

When Pope Pio IX (1864) instituted the chair ofGeology, a Museum of Geology and Palaeontology ofRome “La Sapienza” University was founded. The firstfossil collections of this Museum mainly came fromCentral Italy, especially from Pliocene - Pleistocene sed-

iments cropping out near Rome (molluscs, echinodermsand mammals) and from Mesozoic sediments (in partic-ular ammonites and rudists).

Over the years, collections stored in museum weregreatly enlarged with specimens from Italy and abroad.In 1928, as a consequence of the institution of the chairof Palaeontology, the Palaeontological Museum wasfounded.

Among the type-bearing collections, very important isthe Sanfilippo collection. Ignazio Sanfilippo, a miningengineer, worked in the years 1929-1931 for the ItalianRoyal Government to search phosphates in Tripolitania(Libya). During his field trips he collected many fossilsfrom Maastrichtian sediments of the lower Sofeggin val-ley that he donated the museum. Subsequently, severalresearchers studied this material: Checchia-Rispoli,Maccagno, Maxia, Serra, Sorrentino and Parona.

THE CATALOGUE ORGANISATION

This catalogue is taxonomically organised: withineach mayor grouping, the taxa are listed by alphabeticorder.

For each type there are eight records:Record 1 - genus and species name, followed by the

name of author(s) and year of institution of the species;Record 2 - inventory number of MPUR (Museo

Paleontologia Università Roma). The inventory numbersare prefixed i. (invertebrate), ve. (vertebrate) and vg.(vegetable);

Record 3 - name of the collection;Record 4 - kind of type: holotype or syntype or lecto-

type;Record 5 - stratigraphic distributionRecord 6 - geographic distribution (country, region,

locality). For Italian localities the initials of the provincename are put between brackets, after the type localityname;

Record 7 - original bibliographic reference, with thenumber of the illustration of the type specimen;

Record 8 - remarks.

ABSTRACT - This paper is the first contribution towards a catalogue of all types stored in the PalaeontologicalMuseum of “La Sapienza” University of Rome. The present list deals mainly with the collection Sanfilippo.

KEY WORDS: holotypes, syntypes, catalogue of types, Palaeontological Rome MuseumPAROLE CHIAVE: olotipi, sintipi, catalogo dei tipi, Museo di Paleontologia di Roma

The types

All the specimens utilized for describing a new speciesare named types. In particular the holotype is the speci-men, chosen by the author, to represent a new species.The remaining specimens of that new species are identi-fied as paratypes. The ICZN (International Code of

Zoological Nomenclature) regulates the type nomencla-ture (1999).

If the holotype was not designed, all the specimensexamined to describe a new species are syntypes.Among the syntypes, a later author may choose a lecto-type. In this case the remaining syntypes are namedparalectotypes.
