Sarika sp. 1
Fig. 10D
Material examined.
Locality no. 9: CUMZ-CM032 (12 shells), CUMZ-CM033 (3 shells). Locality no. 10: CUMZ-CM050 (24 shells), CUMZ-CM051 (1 shell; Fig.
10D
). The empty shells were collected among leaf litter in the limestone area.
Remarks.
The common ground dwelling snail genus
Sarika
is probably restricted to the Indochina region (
Godwin-Austen 1907
). Identifications at species level in
Sarika
based solely on shells cannot be achieved with confidence because of the limited distinguishing shell characters. Species level distinguishing characters in
Sarika
are based mainly on their reproductive anatomy.
However, this specimen can be discriminated from
S. bocourti
(Morelet, 1875) by having a reddish-brown shell with a wide whitish or creamy area surrounding the umbilicus.
Sarika bocourti
, which is described from "Battambang, Cambodje", has a uniform brownish shell (see
Breure et al. (2018
: fig. 135) for the syntype).
