Label.

"angeblich Costarica" [ZMB 21848a]; "Kingston, Jamaika" [ZMB 50676]; labels referring to Strebel’s figures in his handwriting.

Type material.

ZMB 21848a, one syntype; Von Patten leg. ZMB 50676, three syntypes, Hoppe leg.

Remarks.

Strebel (1909: 35-36) mentioned two shells from ZMB with a label "Costa rica vPatten", one with a Martens’ label " zoniferus var. crossei " [which Strebel held for "ein typischer Zebra maracaibensis var. jamaicensis "]; this is one of the shells mentioned by Strebel (1909: 91) under his "Form jamaicensis ". Only one specimen was found and this shell corresponds to Strebel’s pl. 20 fig. 324. The locality of this specimen is probably erroneous. Strebel mentioned also several specimens from Jamaica, present in the ZMB collection and collected by Hoppe (ZMB 50676); these are the shells corresponding to Strebel pl. 20 figs 319-320. The current systematic position is after Richardson (1993).

Current systematic position.

Orthalicidae , Orthalicus maracaibensis (Pfeiffer, 1856).
