Description
SHELL (Figs 26–28;
Tables 3–4
). Almost disc-like, with 5.25–6.25 hardly convex whorls; protoconch almost smooth; teleoconch with irregular wrinkles; apical side with indistinct incised spiral lines, umbilical side with more distinct spiral lines; scaly processes sparse, mainly at periphery; tuberculate around umbilicus; brownish-corneous; body whorl sharply keeled; aperture rounded rhombic; upper insertion of peristome slightly descending; peristome expanded, slightly reflexed and slightly thickened; umbilicus almost concentric, very wide, comprising 30–43% of shell diameter, hardly obscured by columellar edge.
GENITALIA (
Figs 17
,
31
;
Table 4
). Atrium short; penis very long, with a small bulge at proximal end containing a short penis papilla; without penis coecum; membranaceous sheath around distal part of penis connected with epiphallus by tissue; penial retractor runs from diaphragm to proximal part of cylindrical epiphallus; flagellum very long, broadest in its middle part, without node, tapering towards its proximal end; vas deferens narrow and long; vagina long; oviduct short, broad; peduncle of bursa copulatrix subdivided into a broader, abruptly tapering distal part and a narrower, longer proximal part. Right ommatophoral retractor runs between penis and vagina.
Remarks
Landouria epiplatia
was described from Jampang in
West Java
. However, there are several places called Jampang in
West Java
, two among them being more important ones: Jampang Kulon and Jampang Tengah in Sukabumi Regency. Jampang Kulon is at ca
300 m
a.s.l., Jampang Tengah is at ca
500 m
a.s.l. and closer to Sukabumi, the locality given by
van Benthem Jutting (1950)
. Thus, we suppose that Jampang Tengah is the
type
locality.
Plectotropis trichotrochium
Möllendorff, 1897
(Fig. 27) was synonymized with
L. rotatoria
by
van Benthem Jutting (1950)
and
Zilch (1966)
. However, in contrast to
L. rotatoria
, the spire of the single specimen on which
P. trichotrochium
was based is hardly elevated. We suppose that the
holotype
of
P. trichotrochium
is a subadult specimen of
L. epiplatia
that formed a slightly expanded peristome at a premature stage. The specimen is furthermore characterized by stronger radial wrinkles and more distinct incised spiral lines than is usual in
L. epiplatia
. Nevertheless, its occurrence at the type locality of
L. epiplatia
also indicates that it is an aberrant specimen of that species. As first revisers (ICZN 1999: Art. 24), we determine precedence of the name
Plectotropis epiplatia
Möllendorff, 1897
over
Plectotropis trichotrochium
Möllendorff, 1897
.
The description of the genitalia is based on a single subadult specimen from Gunung Gede (ZMH 79946;
Figs 17
,
31
), which differs from typical
L. epiplatia
in the slightly tighter coiled, more elevated spire. The available material is insufficient to decide whether this specimen falls within the variability of
L. epiplatia
or represents a distinct species.
Distribution
Landouria epiplatia
is known from the northern part of Sukabumi Regency in
West Java
and its range might extend to Gunung Gede (Fig. 55).
