Cyclophorus everetti Smith, 1892

Cyclophorus everetti Smith, 1892: 343, pl. 25, fig. 5. Kobelt 1902: 128. Kobelt 1908: 688.

Type locality.

Barit Mountain [north of Borneo, Malaysia].

Type material.

Lectotype (design. n.), NHMUK 1892.7.20.103 ( Fig. 6D; D =36.7 mm, H=20.1 mm, W= 4½), paralectotypes NHMUK 1892.7.23.1-2 (2 shells: 1 adult and 1 juvenile; Fig. 6E; D =33.6 mm, H=20.2 mm, W= 4½).

Remarks.

Vermeulen (1999: 141) noted that the type specimens would be housed in the NHM, London but that he had not seen the specimens. We found four specimens of this species from Everett’s collection with original labels in Smith’s handwriting. This lot contained a juvenile specimen as was indicated in the original description. The figured specimen matches with the single set of shell measurements given in the original description and is designated as the lectotype.
