Remarks.

Jean P.S. de Grateloup described " Bulimus bataviae " in March 1840. Consecutively, he redescribed this taxon including an illustration in November 1840 as " Partula bataviae " (Fig. 1C). However, the previous published name was refered to in the November publication. Therefore, the Bulimus name confers the availability, and agrees with Sherborn’s (1922) list which was made available in Grateloup’s March publication (1840b).
