paludinoides

Ampullaria paludinoides Cristofori & Jan, 1832 . See Cowie & Thiengo (2003: 80).

Additional remarks. American, teste Cristofori & Jan (1832: 7), Philippi (1852b: 24) and Paetel (1873: 65). Philippi (1852a: 27) gave India, South America and Mexico as localities based on museum material identified as this species, but considered the Indian localities more likely. Martens (1857: 213) considered it African. Schaufuss (1869: 55) listed it from “ Ind. or.” and Paetel (1887: 480) from “Moulmein” [ Burma]. Hanley & Theobald (1874: 47) considered the description of Cristofori & Jan to be so inadequate that their species should be ignored. So they treated it as of Philippi (1852a: 27, pl. 7, fig. 4) and said that the shell they themselves figured was not likely to be the species described by Christofori and Jan. It was considered Indian by Nevill (1877: 7–9), who gave the form figured by Hanley & Theobald (1874, pl. 114, fig. 5) as paludinoides of Philippi the new name expansa. Treated as an Old World species by Kobelt (1912b: 102), although Prashad (1925: 81) considered Kobelt’s figure (pl. 43, fig. 2) to be of a shell of expansa Nevill. G.B. Sowerby III (1910: 62) also treated it as of Philippi, referencing Cristofori and Jan and considering it a variety of virens Lamarck. Prashad (1923: 590) View in CoL also recomended that paludinoides Cristofori & Jan be ignored. Alderson (1925: 75) wrote: “The name is one of those elusive ghosts that haunt the nomenclature of the genus” but treated it as a variety of conica Wood. Considered View in CoL an Old World species by Cowie & Thiengo (2003: 80), but this conclusion is hardly definitive.
