Type locality: ‘Les Iles Philippines’. Label locality: ‘ Philippines’ . Type material: Probable syntype NHMUK 1979101 (H. Cuming collection). Remarks: Cernohorsky (1969: 217) : ‘there is one specimen in the type collection which is most probably the holotype and measures 24.4X 4.8 mm . Deshayes’ stated dimensions [ 29X 9 mm] are obvious an error, since the given width in relation to the total length is out of proportion for such a slender species of Terebra ’.
