Type material.
ZMB 34721, one syntype; ex Doering.
Remarks.
Doering did not mention on how many specimens his description was based; however, he gave a range in measurements indicating more than one specimen. The material was received directly from Doering and there is but little doubt about its type status. There are three localities with the name
Oran
in Argentina: two in Prov.
Tucuman
, both south of San Miguel de
Tucuman
, and one in Prov. Salta. The data on the label are thus more specific than the published locality in
Doering's
paper. The current systematic position is following
Miquel (1993)
.
Current systematic position.
Bulimulidae
,
Bostryx stelzneri
(Dohrn, 1875).
