Revised description. Shell small, moderately slender (apical angle ~16–22°). Protoconch incomplete, high conical, of smooth, moderately convex whorls. Teleoconch of up to six whorls. Whorl profile with indistinct, narrow subsutural collar, steep, weakly concave subsutural ramp and weakly angled periphery placed just below mid-whorl. Suture moderately impressed, weakly undulating, occasionally crenulate. Sculpture of moderately close-set, convex, orthocline to weakly prosocline axial ribs, not aligned axially (~11: ~10/11: ~10/11). Axial ribs weakening over subsutural ramp, most prominent along rounded angulation. One or two more prominent varices may occur per whorl ( angulipunctata -morph). Occasionally, axial ribs may form rounded nodes at shoulder and along basal angulations ( bimonilifera -morph). Spiral sculpture of numerous spiral cords separated by slightly narrower, deeply punctate interspaces. Last whorl attaining ~45% of total height, axial ribs rapidly weakening over convex base, basal angulation weak to distinct, often with subobsolete peribasal cord, numerous spiral cords on base. Aperture ovate, columella weakly concave. Outer lip strongly thickened by terminal varix, with radial sculpture. Columellar and parietal callus forming continuous, narrow rim, detached from base. Peristome duplex. Umbilicus reduced to narrow chink.
Paratethyan synonyms. We follow Landau et al. (2006) and consider Pliciscala (Nodiscala) bimonilifera Boettger, 1902 , Nodiscala angulipunctata de Boury in Cossmann, 1912 and Nodiscala rugatina de Boury in Cossmann, 1912 as subjective junior synonyms of Nodiscala scacchii (Hörnes, 1856) . Pliciscala (Nodiscala) bimonilifera is characterized by its prominent nodes along the shoulder of the last whorl and a second row of weaker rows along the basal angulation and Nodiscala angulipunctata is based on a specimen with very prominent varices.
Opalia laevigata Kecskeméti-Körmendy, 1962 was based on a weakly sculptured, poorly preserved specimen (holotype, Magyar Állami Földtani Intézet múzeuma M. 250, SL: 7.0 mm, MD: 2.5 mm, Várpalota, Hungary). The name Opalia laevigata is a secondary homonym of Scalaria laevigata Lefèvre View in CoL in Vincent & Lefèvre, 1873, from the Eocene of Belgium, which was placed in Opalia View in CoL by Glibert (1938). As we consider Opalia laevigata Kecskeméti-Körmendy, 1962 to be subjective junior synonym of Nodiscala scacchii View in CoL , no replacement name is needed.
Discussion. This is a very variable and widespread species, which was discussed in detail by Landau et al. (2006: 50).
Paleoenvironment. Shallow marine, inner neritic; the occurrence at Steinebrunn ( Austria) suggests seagrass environments (own data M.H.).
