Material examined.

Holotype of Lamprocystis fulgida . South Formosa, from collection of Hirase (NHMUK 1903.7.1.1714), designated by monotypy, 4 × 7.3 mm, whorls 4.5.

Remarks.

Godwin-Austen (1907) described the specimen as being 9.75 mm in shell width. By comparing his measurement with mine, I concluded that his was probably an inadvertent error.
