Scope	Nominated as the most valued image on Commons within the scope: *Natica crassa*
Used in	Global usage
Reason	The only picture of this species on Commons. Comment In 1909 a recent Natica-species from the Lesser Sunda Islands, Indonesia, was described under the same name Natica crassa by Shepman. Being a junior homonym, the latter (recent) species was renamed as Natica shepmani n. n. in 1927 by Finley (see: Finley, H.J. (1927): New Specific Names for Austral Mollusca; Transactions and Proceedings of the Royal Society of New Zealand, Vol. 57, p. 499.) The fossil specimems of Nyst and the recent ones of Shepman are not conspecific and should not be confused. -- Llez (talk)
Review (criteria)	Support Very didactic. Thank you for the explanation of the taxonomy. We have daily problems with synonymy. It is sometimes difficult to follow ... --Archaeodontosaurus (talk) 12:10, 30 August 2011 (UTC)[reply] `Result: 1 support, 0 oppose => promoted.
