pfeifferiana Dunker Fig. 63
Amphipeplea pfeifferiana Dunker (? in MS).
Material.
Five shells collected somewhere in New Holland (= mainland Australia) are kept in ZMB under accession number 109770. The largest of them is 14.1 mm height.
Current taxonomic allocation.
Possibly, a synonym of Austropeplea lessoni (Deshayes, 1830).
Remark.
Like other species names attributed to Dunker and listed in this supplement, Limnaea pfeifferiana seems to be a member of the group of so-called "manuscript names", whose original descriptions have been not found in the literature.
