Ordo: Pulmonata
Familia: Orthalicidae
Genus: Helix
Name
Helix onca d'Orbigny, 1835 – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile
- Helix onca d'Orbigny 1835: 8.
- Bulimus onca d'Orbigny 1837 [1834–1847]: 295, pl. 30 figs 1–2; Gray 1854[1]: 19.
Type locality
Not given. [Bolivia] “...non loin du dernier point habité de Tutulima” in d'Orbigny 1837 [1834–1847][2]; see Breure (1973)[3] for precise data.
Label
“Yuracares (Bolivia)”, label in d'Orbigny's handwriting.
Dimensions
“Longit. 62 millim.; latit. 25 millim.”; lectotype H 66.5, D 25.9, W 5.4.
Type material
NHM 1854.12.4.120, lectotype and three paralectotypes (d'Orbigny coll.).
Remarks
The locality on the label corresponds to the type locality of Helix pentadina d'Orbigny, 1835, which has been synonymized with Helix onca by subsequent authors; the former name has page precedence. The specimen corresponding to d'Orbigny 1837 [1834–1847][2]: pl. 30 fig. 1 is now selected lectotype (design. n.). According to Gray (1854)[1] the type specimen of Bulimus pentadinus d'Obigny is missing.
Current systematic position
Amphibulimidae, Plekocheilus (Eurytus) pentadinus (d'Orbigny, 1835).
