Bothriembryon gunni brachysoma Pilsbry 1900: 19, pl. 3 fig. 53.

Type material.

ANSP 8461, holotype.

Remarks.

This taxon was placed in the synonymy of Bothriembryon tasmanicus (Pfeiffer, 1853) by Iredale (1937: 313). We tentatively follow his judgement, but further study should clarify the status of this taxon.

Current systematic position.

Bothriembryontidae, Bothriembryon tasmanicus (Pfeiffer, 1853).
