The age given at the time of the publication considered a wrong correlation between the Mediterranean and Paratethyan stages. At that time the Badenian (where from the material comes) was correlated with the Tortonian, but later on it was correlated with the Langhian and early Serravallian). The material comes from the Velapertina Zone of the late Badenian, which means the correct age for the species is early Serravallian.
Dear Prof Filipescu
Thank you for commenting on this and I have now corrected the text.
best wishes
