Type material.

NHMUK 1854.12.4.171, seven paralectotypes ( d’Orbigny coll.).

Remarks.

The specimen originally figured in d’Orbigny 1837 [1834-1847]: pl. 34 fig. 9 has the top broken. According to the collation of Coan et al. (2013a) d’Orbigny’s plate was published on 3 April 1837, the text on 23 April 1838. Miquel (1989a) identified two specimens in the MNHN as syntypes of this taxon and designated one as lectotype; according to him these specimens were considered until then as part of the syntypes of Helix crepundia d’Orbigny, 1835. Breure (1975b), however, listed two syntypes of Bulimus rivasii in the MNHN collection, with locality "Cuesta de Petaca"; see also Breure 1973: 127, fig. 5.
