moyobambensis, Helix, J. Moricand, 1858: 450 , pl. 13 fig. 3.

Type locality: [ Peru] Moyobamba . Syntypes: MHNG-INVE-68036 (1), MHNG-INVE-68666 (1) ( Haplotrematidae ) [ Figs 77-79 ].

– Remarks. Moricand junior did not mention on how many specimens his description was based. Lot 68036 appears to have been collected by M. Porte and was part of the Moricand collection. Lot 68666 was part of the Brot collection, but originates from Moricand junior, and is here considered as belonging to the original series.
