Hutton, 1883. The New ZealandJournal of Science, 1: 476.
Type material. Lectotype, CMNZ M1400(dry shell). Lectotypefixed by inference of holotype( ICZNArt. 74.6) by Climo et al. (2020: 70). Label details. CMNZM1400—‘103. Endodonta nerissa Hutton, Auckland’, pillbox label in Hutton’s handwriting. Typelocality.‘ Auckland(T. F. Cheeseman)’ ( Hutton 1883g: 476, 1884b: 176), ‘Remuera, near Auckland(Cheeseman)’ ( Hutton 1884c: 196). Previous illustrations of typematerial. Climo et al. (2020: fig. 2B—lectotype).
Remarks.Original description based on one or more specimens from Remuera, Auckland. Huttonsubmitted a description of Endodonta nerissato the Transactions and Proceedings of the New ZealandInstitute issue for 1883, but publication was delayed until May 1884( Hutton 1884b: 176), and was pre-empted by a brief description in an account of a meeting of the Philosophical Institute of Canterbury( Hutton 1883g: 476). As noted in the preceding species entry, from Suter (1892d: 283–285)onwards, nerissahas generally been treated as a subjective junior synonym of Endodonta marinaHutton, 1883, which he described from the same typelocality, but it was reinstated as a valid species by Climo et al. (2020). Current taxonomy. Laoma nerissa(Hutton, 1883)— Climo et al. (2020).
Distribution. New Zealand; North Island, from Aucklandsouth, northern South Island, in Nelsonand MarlboroughSounds ( Climo et al. 2020; AIM and NMNZ distribution records).
