Amphidromus adamsii rubiginosa Fulton, 1896

Amphidromus adamsi var. rubiginosa Fulton, 1896a: 84.

Type locality.

N. Borneo.

Type material.

2 probable syntypes NHMUK 19601477 (2S, Fig. 13N).

Remarks.

There are two specimens from H. Cuming’s collection accompanied with Fulton’s handwritten label stating the taxon name. The type locality in the original publication was given as N. Borneo, but this lot has no locality. However, these specimens closely match the original description, especially in colour pattern and so it seems likely that these were indeed the shells that Fulton based the species description upon. Therefore, on this basis, we consider these specimens to be probable syntypes.
