Type material. USNM 504095, holotype.
Type locality. On the trail from Samaná to Rio San Juan, Samaná Peninsula.
Other material examined. UF 216164, 8 km W of Samaná, Samaná Province, Dominican Republic; UF 215974, 10 km E of Las Terrenas, Samaná Province, Dominican Republic at sea level; UF 215975, 8 km WNW of Sánchez, Samaná Province, Dominican Republic; UF 215976, 11 km E of Sánchez, Samaná Province, Dominican Republic; UF 215979a, b, 7 km E of Sánchez, Samaná Province, Dominican Republic; UF 215978a, b, 5 km E of Sánchez, Samaná Province, Dominican Republic; UF 215977, 10 km SW of Las Terrenas, Samaná Province, Dominican Republic; GTW 9430a, several km W of Sánchez, Samaná Province, Dominican Republic.
Distribution and habitat. Records place this species closer to Sánchez than to Rio San Juan in the Sierra de Samaná of the Cordillera Septentrional; also on the north coast of the peninsula near Las Terrenas. Specimens have been found at the base of limestone mogotes and chimneys in lowland rain forests on damp, algae-covered rocks; some areas are now cacao groves.
Comparison with other species. This subspecies is very similar to A. newcombi ( Figure 3 View FIGURE 3. A – E M), a species described without an exact locality. Both species have two prominent spiral cords in the umbilicus, nearly identical sculpture, and similar dark coloration. Abbottella newcombi has a lower spire and less developed outer lip than does A. a. peninsularis , but additional material may indicate that the two taxa are not distinct from each other, in which case the name A. newcombi would have priority.
