Type material examined.

Syntype of Coptocheilus perakensis NHMUK 1903.11.20.33 (1 shell; Fig. 5D View Figure 5 ) from Perak.

Other material examined.

SMF 262529/1 " Schistoloma siamensis Brandt" (1 shell; Fig. 5E View Figure 5 ) from Thailand: an den Tanto-Fällen bei Ban Nong Star; Yala Provinz [Than To Waterfall Forest Park, Bannang Sata District, Yala Province, Thailand]. NHMUK 1986.4.19.14 " Coptocheilus sectilabrum var." (1 shell; Fig. 5F View Figure 5 ) from Larut near Perak.

Diagnosis.

Shell elongate conical without any periumbilical keel. Apertural round without any indentation.

Differential diagnosis.

Coptocheilus sumatranus is different from C. sectilabris in having a round aperture without any indentation.

Distribution.

Peninsular Malaysia, Sumatra Island, and southern Thailand ( Laidlaw 1928; van Benthem Jutting 1949; Foon et al. 2017).

Remarks.

No material of this species was found during this survey. Although C. sumatranus only differs from C. sectilabris by an absence of an indentation in the peristome ( van Benthem Jutting 1949), we do not synonymise C. sumatranus with C. sectilabris because of the lack of DNA data and that there are too few specimens to verify whether specimens collected from the same localities of C. sectilabris eventually lack an angular indentation in the peristome. Coptocheilus perakensis was retrieved as a junior subjective synonym of C. sumatranus because there are no distinct differences in shell form and size between them ( C. sumatranus : shell height 19-24 mm, diameter 8-9 mm; C. perakensis : shell height 23 mm, diameter including peristome 11 mm; van Benthem Jutting 1949).

The name " Schistoloma siamensis Brandt" given to two samples (SMF 262529 = holotype" and SMF 262530 = “paratypes”) from Than To Waterfall Forest Park, Bannang Sata District, Yala Province, Thailand was never published and so is not available. These specimens are larger, more elongated, and have a darker shell colour but the other diagnostic characters conform to those found in the syntype of ' C. perakensis '. Thus, Brandt’s specimens are herein identified as C. sumatranus .
