Helix phlogera d’Orbigny, 1835: 8 . – Breure & Ablett, 2015: 44 View Cited Treatment , figs 13iii-iv, L15iii.

Bulimus phlogerus . – d’Orbigny, 1837 [1834-1847]: 259, pl. 29 figs 6-8 [text 30 March 1838]. – Gray, 1854: 12.

Type locality: “provincia Chiquitensi (republica Boliviana)”.

Label: “Chiquitos”, in Moricand’s handwriting.

Dimensions: “Longit. 55 millim.; latit. 24 millim.”. Figured specimen H 47.5, D 24.2, W 5.9.

Type material: MHNG-INVE-64982 , two syntypes (ex d’Orbigny, Moricand coll.).

Remarks: d’Orbigny (1835) did not state on how many specimens his description was based. In d’Orbigny (1838 [1834-1847]: 260) the locality was specified as “environs des Missions de San-Xavier et de Concepcion ”; see Breure, 1973. Of the material found, none of the shells corresponds exactly to d’Orbigny’s figure. Additional material is in NHMUK ( Breure & Ablett, 2015). The current systematic position is according to Richardson (1993: 108).

Current systematic position: Orthalicidae , Orthalicus phlogerus (d’Orbigny, 1835) .
