Bulimus lividus Reeve 1850 [1848-1850]: pl. 85 fig. 626; Breure 1979: 121 (lectotype designation).

Dimensions.

Not given; figured specimen herein H 24.5, D 11.22, W 6.7+.

Type material.

NHMUK 1975208, lectotype; 1975209, two paralectotypes (Cuming coll.).

Remarks.

The aperture of the lectotype has been damaged and the thin lip has been broken off; also the top is slightly damaged. We tentively follow Richardson (1995) in grouping this taxon with Bulimus granadensis Pfeiffer, 1848, but have not seen any type material of the latter for comparison.

Current systematic position.

Bulimulidae , Drymaeus (Mesembrinus) granadensis (Pfeiffer, 1848).
