Amphidromus andamanicus nicobarica Godwin-Austen, 1895

Amphidromus andamanicus var. nicobarica Godwin-Austen, 1895: 443, 450.

Type locality.

Katchall [island in Andaman and Nicobar Islands, India].

Type material.

Holotype NHMUK 1888.8.6.31 (Figs 2F, 11L; H=38.4 mm, W=19.0 mm).

Remarks.

Godwin-Austen clearly stated that this taxon was described based on only one specimen. Therefore a single specimen ex. Röepstorff (Fig. 2F) in the NHM collections is recognized as the holotype fixed by monotypy ( ICZN 1999: Art. 73.1.2).
