Cyclophorus beddomeanus Preston, 1914
Cyclophorus beddomeanus
Preston, 1914: 21, text-fig.
Gude 1921
: 74, 75.
Type locality.
Naga Hills [Assam, Arunachal Pradesh and Nagaland, India].
Type material.
Lectotype (design. n.), NHMUK 1936.4.15.22 (
Fig. 4C; D
=53.8 mm, H=44.0 mm, W=5).
Remarks.
The original description gives a range of shell dimensions so this species is clearly based on more than one specimen. Preston mentions a "white-lipped variety" that was included in the type series but which could not be located in the NHM collections. The specimen 1936.4.15.22 is the one figured in the original description and is designated as the lectotype.
