Dafla Hills, Assam [India].
Type material.
Syntype NHMUK 1903.7.1.1491 (1 shell; Fig. 8H).
Remarks.
This species was clearly described based on more than one specimen since the author stated "largest example". The NHM collections contain a lot containing a single specimen with an original label in Godwin-Austen’s handwriting stating “Type”. This specimen matches well with the illustration and the measurements given in the original description.
