Remarks.

The original description is clearly based on more than one specimen, but only one set of measurements and illustrations were given. The NHM type collections contain a lot of six shells with the label stating the taxon name, collection locality, and “Type”. The specimen figured in the original description, which is closest to the shell dimensions given in the original description, is illustrated in Figure 1K.
