Amphidromus laevus romaensis Rolle, 1903

Amphidromus laevus var. romaensis Rolle, 1903: 157.

Type locality.

Insel Roma, Timor.

Type material.

Lectotype (designated by Zilch 1953: 133, pl. 22, fig. 11), SMF 7574a, paralectotypes SMF 7574b-c, NHMUK 1908.7.6.78 (1S, Fig. 13G).

Remarks.

The original description was very brief and H. Rolle never designated a unique name-bearing type. Later, Zilch (1953) designated the lectotype from H. Rolle’s collection in the Senckenberg Museum. The NHM registration records show that a specimen was purchased from Sowerby and Fulton’s collection with the original label stating “Co-type” and giving the locality "Roma I.". Therefore, we consider this specimen to be a paralectotype.
