Cyclophorus fulguratus rangunensis Kobelt, 1908
Cyclophorus fulguratus var. Pfeiffer, 1869: 440, pl. 98, figs 1, 2.
Cyclophorus fulguratus var. rangunensis Kobelt, 1908: 647, pl. 93, figs 1, 2. Gude 1921: 61.
Type locality.
Inter Thyet-Mio et Rangoon Birmanorum, Pegu [between Thayet District and Yangon in Myanmar, Bago].
Type material.
Lectotype (design. n.), NHMUK 20130091/1 ( Fig. 17A; D View Figure 17 =34.7 mm, H=30.3 mm, W=5), paralectotypes NHMUK 20130091/2-3 (2 shells; Fig. 17B; D View Figure 17 =27.4 mm, H=23.4 mm, W=5; D=27.1 mm, H=23.2 mm, W=5).
Remarks.
Kobelt (1908) described this species based on Pfeiffer’s specimens. Since a range of measurement was given it can be assumed that the taxon was described using more than one specimen. There are three shells in the NHM collections from the Cuming collection with original labels in Pfeiffer’s handwriting. One of the specimens matches with figures in Kobelt (1908: pl. 93, figs. 1, 2) and Pfeiffer (1869: pl. 98, figs. 1, 2) and is here designated as the lectotype.
