Name
Bulimus pyrostomus Pfeiffer, 1860 – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile
- Bulimus pyrostomus Pfeiffer 1860[1]: 137; Breure and Schouten 1985[2]: 59, 72.
- Placostylus (Santacharis) salomonis (Pfeiffer); Solem 1959[3]: 132, pl. 8 fig. 5 (lectotype designation).
- Santacharis salomonis (Pfeiffer); Delsaerdt 2010[4]: 76, pl. 12 figs 13–14.
Type locality
[Vanuatu, Erromanga] “Erumanga, New Hebrides”.
Label
“Isle of Eurymanga, New Hebrides”, taxon label in Pfeiffer’s handwriting. M.C. label style III.
Dimensions
“Long. 42, diam. 19 mill.”; lectotype H 41.5, D 22.0, W 5.3.
Type material
NHMUK 1975235, lectotype and two paralectotypes (Cuming coll.).
Remarks
According to Solem (1959)[3] the “holotype of pyrostomus is more slender than most of the specimens seen, but it is not too atypical. The holotype of salomonis could not be located in the British Museum”. Solem based his comments on a photograph of the type and was possibly unaware of the existence of two additional specimens. His “holotype of pyrostomus” is here interpreted as a lectotype designation (Art. 74.6 ICZN), overruling the subsequent designation by Breure and Schouten (1985: 59). See also under Bulimus salomonis.
Current systematic position
Bothriembryontidae, Santacharis salomonis (Pfeiffer, 1853).
