Type material.
11 shells from the type locality in three samples: no. 4613 and two without numbers. One of these shells (see fig. 45) is separated and marked as belonging to the type collection (a syntype). The rest of specimens are not formally labeled as syntypes but probably also origin from the type series.
Type locality.
Mexico, in Zimapan and Lake of Mexico (
Kuester
1862
). leg. Albers, Dunker.
Current taxonomic allocation.
Ladislavella (Walterlymnaea) elodes
(Say, 1821).
Syntype dimensions.
WN 7.75; SH 32.2; SW 9.6; SpH 22.1; BWH 18.3; AH 11.8; SW 6.6.
Remarks.
Not discussed by
Kilias (1961
,
1967
).
Hubendick (1951)
considered it to be a synonym of
Stagnicola palustris
that is apparently wrong since the latter species does not live in North America (
Burch 1989
;
Johnson et al. 2013
).
Baker (1911)
synonymized
Limnaeus subulatus
with
Stagnicola attenuata
(Say, 1829) that seems to be more reliable. Currently,
Stagnicola attenuata
is treated as identical with
Stagnicola elodes
(Say, 1821), placed by
Vinarski (2012)
into the subgenus
Walterlymnaea
Starobogatov & Budnikova, 1976 of the genus
