Type locality.

"Rio Mixiolla, province Huallaga, Pérou”.

Label.

"Rio Mixiolla prov. / Huallaga Pérou”, in Dautzenberg’s handwriting.

Dimensions.

"Long. 63, diam. maj. 22 millim."; figured specimen H 40.7, D 21.3, W 6.8.

Type material.

RBINS/MT2377, one paralectotype, Baer leg. (Dautzenberg coll.).

Remarks.

The specimen is not marked as type, but corresponds to the data as given by Dautzenberg (1901). The holotype designation of a specimen in the MNHN collection ( Fischer-Piette 1950) has to be interpreted as lectotype designation (Art. 74.6 ICZN); the measurements of this specimen closely match those given by Dautzenberg ( Breure 1975b). The RBINS material should thus be considered a paralectotype as Dautzenberg states he had seen two specimens.

Current systematic position.

Bulimulidae , Drymaeus (Drymaeus) scoliodes (Dautzenberg, 1901).
