Type material.
Holotype
NZSI M.6010/1.
Paratypes
NZSI M.6009/1 (1 shell) from Rotung, 2000 ft., near Egar stream; NHMUK 1903.7.1.3048 (2 shells;
Nantarat et al. 2014a
; fig. 2b) from Kalek; NHMUK 1903.7.1.3051 (1 shell;
Nantarat et al. 2014a
; fig. 2a) from Renging.
Other non-type materials.
NHMUK 1903.7.1.3049 (2 shells) from Rami Dambang, Abor.
Specimen "No. 6010/1 in Ind. Mus." (NZSI M.6010/1) is deemed the holotype fixed by original designation as explained above. All specimens in the remaining lots are paratypes, except for lot "No. 3049 B.M.", which
Godwin-Austen (1915)
regarded as a dwarf variety. In addition, the designation of a lectotype from lot NHMUK 1903.7.1.3051, labelled with
"Co-Type"
in
Godwin-Austen's
handwriting (Fig.
6A
) and recorded as
"CoT"
in the Register of Godwin-Austen (Fig.
7A
), by
Nantarat et al. (2014a)
is invalid. The type locality of this taxon is restricted to "Rotung, 2000 ft., near Egar stream" only.
