Diagnostic characters. Trochiform shell; umbilical chink closed by parietal callus in most specimens; rounded prosocline aperture; thin, prosocline collabral riblets and superimposed spiral cords; spiral cords increasing in number by intercalation during growth; nodules at the intersections of riblets and spiral cords; strongest spiral cord suprasutural forming the periphery. Protoconch: low, consisting of 1.25 whorls; diameter about 310 μm; surface finely granulated; transition to the teleoconch marked by a simple, slightly everted lip. Occurrence. Box-corer samples BC04 (1 specimen), BC05 (2), BC11 (1), BC22 (1), BC66 (7), BC67 (7), BC68 (2), BC70 (2), BC71 (59), BC72 (21); cores BC05 (1), BC21 (1), BC72 (3). Maximum height: 5.5 mm. Distribution and habitat. Putzeysia wiseri is distributed from the NE Atlantic to the Mediterranean, dwelling on coralline or muddy bottoms between 150 and 3000 m depth, but being more frequent in association with deep water corals in the 500–2000 m interval; it is possibly a cold-water species relict on deep water corals (Ghisotti & Melone 1971; Guidastri et al. 1984; Poppe & Goto 1991; Ratmeyer et al. 2004). It has been regarded to represent an exclusive characteristic element of the VP (bathyal mud) biocoenosis (Di Geronimo 1979[a]) and an associated element of the CB (deep-sea white corals) biocoenosis (Guidastri et al. 1984). In the Santa Maria di Leuca CWC biotope, it was found on living colonies of Madrepora oculata (Mastrototaro et al. 2010), being common in coral rubble and solitary coral thanatofacies (Rosso et al. 2010). Fossil record. Pliocene (doubtful) of Sicily (Guidastri et al. 1984); Pleistocene of central and southern Italy (Di Geronimo 1979[a]; Di Geronimo & Li Gioi 1980; Guidastri et al. 1984; Di Geronimo & Bellagamba 1985; Di Geronimo & La Perna 1997; Di Geronimo et al. 2005). The species was originally described by Calcara (1842) on fossil material from Sicily; other authors (Ghisotti & Melone 1 971; Guidastri et al. 1984) recorded it from the same sediments as Trochus gemmulatus.
