Type locality: [ Peru] “ vallées chaudes d’Abancay et d’Acostambo , situées à l’ouest du Cuzco ”.

Label: “Abancay”, “Cocharcas”.

Dimensions: “Long. 20; diam. 9 mill.”; figured specimen herein H 19.6, D 8.65, W 6.5.

Type material: MHNG-INVE-60260, one resp. two probable syntypes (Angrand coll.).

Remarks: Morelet did not state on how many specimens his description was based; additional type material is present in NHMUK ( Breure & Ablett, 2014). The taxon name is in pencil, by a later hand, therefore the material is considered as probable syntypes; the specimen from Abancay seems to be matching with Morelet’s figure. The current systematic position is as given by Richardson (1995: 36); see above under Bulimus albicolor Morelet, 1860 .

Current systematic position: Bulimulidae , Bostryx albicolor ( Morelet, 1860) .
