Type material.

Three shells of syntypes collected in Surabaya (Java Island, Indonesia) and kept under No. 8140. The largest of these shells reaches 26.6 mm height. Kilias (1961) reported that he intended one of these shells to become the lectotype of Limnaeus javanicus var. intumescens and separated it under accession number 8140a, however I was not able to find this specimen in ZMB collection. Probably, it is still placed among other syntypes under No. 8140.

Type locality.

Indonesia: Java Island (Surabaya, Passuruan, Rogodjampi). leg. von Martens and Zollinger.
