Type locality.

"in provincia Peruviae Xagua" (see remarks).

Label.

"Prov. of Xagua, Peru". M.C. label style I.

Dimensions.

"long. 1, lat. 0.6 poll. [H 25.3, D 15.2 mm]"; figured specimen herein H 25.8, D 15.5, W 5.9.

Type material.

NHMUK 20100631, three possible syntypes (Cuming coll.).

Remarks.

The specimen figured by Reeve was found in the collection and, together with two other specimens, are considered possible syntypes. The type locality may refer to Dept. Jauja in Central Peru (teste Crawford 1939: 330) or to Dept. Amazonas, Prov. Bagua; the latter seems slightly outside the range known for this subgenus. The current systematic position at species level follows Richardson (1995: 348).

Current systematic position.

Bulimulidae , Kuschelenia (Vermiculatus) bicolor (Sowerby I, 1835) (comb. n.).
