Type material.
Lectotype (design. n.), NHMUK 20130117/1 (
Fig. 8A; D
=28.6 mm, H=25.4 mm, W=5), paralectotypes NHMUK 20130117/2-3 (2 shells;
Fig. 8B; D
=27.4 mm, H=25.1 mm, W=5; D=29.7 mm, H=25.7 mm, W=5).
Remarks.
The original description by Pfeiffer did not give an illustration of the species or a collection locality.
Pfeiffer (1854a
: 354, pl. 45, figs 9, 10) re-published the description and figured the species. Three shells from
Cuming's
collection have an original Pfeiffer label giving the species name and a collection locality of
"Arva"
, that could perhaps be in
Pfeiffer's
handwriting, although a later label states:
"Arva''
added to label not by Pfeiffer? In addition there is a separate label with the specimens, also possibly in
Pfeiffer's
handwriting, stating: 'Prame
Pegu'
. The figured shell from
Pfeiffer (1854a
: pl. 45, figs 9, 10) with an
"x"
written in the aperture is here designated as the lectotype but the type locality remains uncertain.
