Type material.

NHMUK 1854.12.4.139, lectotype ( d’Orbigny coll.).

Remarks.

The material consists of one specimen, corresponding to the figure in d’Orbigny 1837 [1834-1847]; it is here desingated lectotype (design.n.) as d’Orbigny did not state on how many specimens his description was based. Although d’Orbigny (1835) published this taxon as Helix rhodinostama , and this was not corrected by him in the same work, the prevailing usage of rhodinostoma makes this a justified emendation (Art. 33.2.3.1 ICZN).

Current systematic position.

Odontostomidae , Bahiensis rhodinostoma ( d’Orbigny, 1835).
