Treatment

Alycaeus succineus W. T. Blanford, 1862: 139-140.

Alycaeus succineus - Reeve 1878: pl. 2, species 16; Godwin-Austen 1914: 424, pl. 151, fig. 2.

Alycaeus (Dicharax) succineus - Kobelt 1902: 377; Gude 1921: 271-272.

Type locality.

"in montibus Arakanensibus".

Material examined.

Tangoop Pass, Arakan Hills, NHMUK 1906.404.52 (1 syntype).

Remarks.

Protoconch rather low, without spiral striae; R1 regularly ribbed without spiral striation; R2 long with widely spaced, sharp ribs. Alycaeus succineus is classified in Dicharax on the basis of the low protoconch and the absence of spiral striation, but the elevated, sharp R2 ribs are characteristic of the genera Metalycaeus and Chamalycaeus .
