Amphidromus maculiferus inflata Fulton, 1896

Amphidromus maculiferus var. inflata Fulton, 1896a: 75.

Type locality.

Baranda Philippines Islands.

Type material.

Lectotype (design. n.), NHMUK 19601466/1 (Fig. 9C; H=64.2 mm, W=34.2 mm), paralectotypes NHMUK 19601466/2-3 (2S, Fig. 9D).

Remarks.

Three specimens originally from the Fulton collection with his handwritten label bearing the taxon and the type locality were located in the NHM collections. The largest shell (64.2 × 34.2 mm) clearly corresponds to the original description and Fulton’s measurements (66 × 38 mm) and so is here designated as the lectotype to stabilise the name.
