Bulimus lividus Reeve 1850 [1848-1850]: pl. 85 fig. 626; Breure 1979: 121 (lectotype designation).

Remarks.

The aperture of the lectotype has been damaged and the thin lip has been broken off; also the top is slightly damaged. We tentively follow Richardson (1995) in grouping this taxon with Bulimus granadensis Pfeiffer, 1848, but have not seen any type material of the latter for comparison.
