status

 

58. lombockensis (Smith, 1898) View in CoL Fig. 8A

Cyclotus (Pseudocyclophorus) lombockensis Smith, 1898a: 31, pl. 2, fig. 18. Kobelt 1902: 192.

Current generic position.

Cyclotus Swainson, 1840

Type locality.

Rinjani Peak, 2,500 ft [at 2500 ft., Gunung Rinjani, Lombok Island, west Nusa Tenggara Province, Indonesia].

Type material.

Lectotype (design. n.) NHMUK 1897.3.13.59 (Fig. 8A).

Remarks.

The species description was not explicitly based on one specimen, but only a single shell was illustrated and just one set of shell measurements was given in the original description. The NHM type lot contains one specimen with an original label in Smith’s handwriting and a label stating “Type”, subsequently changed to “Holotype”. This is not a valid holotype designation ( ICZN 1999: Art. 73.1 and Recommendation 73F). This specimen matches well with the illustration and the shell measurements given in the original description, and is designated here as the lectotype to stabilise the name.
