Type material.

Syntype NHMUK 1980121 (1 adult + 1 juvenile; Fig. 5K, L).

Remarks.

This species was described from specimens in the Cuming collection and only one set of shell measurements was given in the original description. Pfeiffer (1854a) re-published the description and figured a specimen from the Cuming collection. The NHM collections contain a lot of two specimens with a label stating “Type”. The adult specimen that matches well with the illustrations in Pfeiffer (1854a) and Reeve (1863), and the shell dimensions given in the original description, is figured herein (Fig. 5K).
