Type material.
NHMUK 20100635, five probable syntypes; 20100636, five probable syntypes (Cuming coll.).
Remarks.
There are two lots with the same same label. As Broderip described this taxon from
Cuming's
collection, we consider them as probable syntypes; see also the remarks under
Bulinus scabiosus
. One of the specimens of lot 20100635 corresponds to
Reeve 1848 [1848-1850]
: pl. 21 fig. 129a; the other figure (129b) corresponds to one of the specimens from the second lot (20100636). The current systematic position follows
Richardson (1995)
.
Current systematic position.
