Etheridge's type material from Canama was never among those specimens presented to the BM by him and registered in 1879. As the original illustration is poor and the present material does not come from the type locality, it seems inadvisable to select a ncotype. Some doubt as to the correctness of the present identification must remain as rather similar species occur at La Tagua (V. lataguensis sp. now, p. 258) and in the Cuenca Basin (herein determined as V. sp. aff. browni). Furthermore, Etheridge's rather poor illustra- tion is of a comparatively stout shell (see dimensions). The fact that Canama lies in the same general area as Tres Unidos and Puerto Narino may be taken as evidence in favour of the determination being correct. The newly collected material from Puerto Narino is clearly conspccific with the shell figured by Parodi/ ( l%°0 as Aylo- costoma sulcatus Conrad from Tres Unidos. Parodi/ later (Bristow & Parodi/ ll)82: 4'M recognized that the EresI fnidos material, referred to by Roxo (ll>24) and independently redescribed b\ Costa ( ll'Sl), belonged to browni rathet than Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original British Museum (Natural History).
