Valid binomial name?
The name of this species appears in the article as "Calliostoma punctulatum". However, in the genus article (Calliostoma) and in the cited references, appear a species with a very similar binomial name "Calliostoma punctulata" and the same authority. Could both be synonyms? maybe only one is the accepted? In this case, we should change the name of the article or the reference in the species list of the genus...
