Iniforis turristhomae (Holten, 1802) View in CoL

Rios (1970, 1975, 1985, 1994, 2009) presented the main records of I. turristhomae for Brazil. Yet, these were questioned by Leal (1991) and Fernandes et al. (2013), who suggested the correct species was Iniforis pseudothomae Rolán & Fernández-Garcés, 1993 . After examining all lots referred to I. turristhomae at the MORG collection, where Dr Rios worked for most of his life, we conclude that almost all of them indeed corresponded to I. pseudothomae , and no shell of I. turristhomae was seen. Hence, the record of I. turristhomae in Brazil is invalidated, and the southernmost range of this species lies somewhere between Venezuela and the Guyanas.
