Taxonomic remark Oskars et al., 2019 treat this as an accepted genus but note: Iredale (1929) erected the genus Osorattis for Atys dubiosa Brazier, 1877, by referring to the original description, which according to ICZN (1999: Article 12.2.5) is valid because it predates 1931. However, the original description of the species is ambiguous and does not include an illustration. Moreover, the type material seems to be lost, or at least we could not trace it. Thiele (1931) noticed that the shell looked similar to that of species of Notodiaphana Thiele, 1917 (a nomina dubia according to Oskars et al. 2015). The illustration of Cylichna labiata by Watson (1886: pl. 50, fig. 4), which, according to Hedley (1901), is a synonym of Atys dubiosa, shows a Retusidae type shell. There is much uncertainty around the taxa A. dubiosa and Osorattis, but evidence available suggests that both most likely belong in the family Retusidae. [details]
