Lymnaea peregra var. pulchella Roffiaen 1868
Lymnaea peregra var. pulchella Roffiaen, 1868 Fig. 2 C Limnæa peregra var. pulchella Roffiaen, 1868: 77, pl. 1, fig. 8. Type material. RBINS I.G.7065 / MT.4173: 3 syntypes, ex Colbeau coll. Type locality. Switzerland: Altdorf, in a ditch on the plains towards Seedorf. “ […] dans un fossé de la plaine d’Altorf vers Seedorf (M. Colbeau) ” (Roffiaen 1868: 77). Taxonomic status. Junior synonym of Peregriana peregra (O. F. Müller, 1774) (cf. Hubendick 1951; Vinarski 2024). Discussion. The present lot stems from the collection of Jules Colbeau, it comes from the type locality (Altdorf, spelled “ Altorf ” on label as in the original publication), and the specimens are a good match to the published illustration (Roffiaen 1868: pl. 1, fig. 8); the three specimens it contains are here considered syntypes.
