Type locality.

Takow, Formosa [northern Qi-Jin, Kaohsiung City] (Swinhoe)

Material examined.

Lectotype. Formosa, coll. Swinhoe (NHMUK 1866.5.9.6/1), new designation, 4.4 × 6.9 mm, whorls 4.

Paralectotypes. Formosa, coll. Swinhoe (NHMUK 1866.5.9.6/2-3, 2 shells). Formosa, from collection of H. Adams (NHMUK 1878.1.28.73, 3 shells).

Remarks.

Adams (1866) described the locality as Takow, Formosa, but the original label has only "Formosa". The specimen corresponding well in size with the measurement of Adams (1866) and having sculptures in good condition is designated as the lectotype for the stabilization of the name ( ICZN 1999: Art. 74).
