Taxonavigation

Ordo: Pulmonata
Familia: Orthalicoidea
Genus: Placostylus

Name

Placostylus foxi Clench, 1950 – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile

Type locality

“Heuru western end of San Cristobal Island, Solomon Islands”.

Label

“Brit. Solomon Isl. / Heuru, western Cristobal Isl.”.

Dimensions

“Length 86.8, Gt. width 32 [mm]”; specimen figured herein H 82.3, D 31.5, W 5.9.

Type material

NHMUK 1953.2.4.1, paratype (ex Schlesch).

Remarks

Delsaerdt (2010)[3] corrected the coordinates of the type locality as given by Clench. The specimen in NHMUK was obtained “Through Dr Quick” from the Schlesch collection and has a label “paratype” glued within the aperture. It may be noted that Clench (1950)[1] stated “Paratypes (...) in the Museum of Comparative Zoology, the B.P. Bishop Museum and the collections of A.G. Stevenson, Reverend Fox and Walter J. Eyerdam”. It is not clear how the specimen reached the Schlesch collection or if it was genuinely part of the original series.

Current systematic position

Bothriembryontidae, Eumecostylus foxi (Clench, 1950).
