Type locality: Kyoung Gyoung Nulla, Henzada, Pegu. Gude 1921: 318. Diplommatina (Eudiplommatina) henzadaensis — Kobelt and Möllendorff 1898: 137. Diplommatina (Diplommatina) henzadaensis — Kobelt 1902: 434, 435. Type material examined. Myanmar • Holotype. NHMUK 1906.4.4.22 (Fig. 17 D) from Khyoung Gyoung-nulla, Henzada; W. T. Blanford coll. Diagnosis. Shell dextral, ovate-turreted. Six whorls, rounded; antepenultimate whorl largest; sculptured with fine, widely spaced radial ribs. Spire convex; apex blunt; suture well marked. Aperture circular. Peristome double, continuous, thickened; columellaris well-developed. Distribution. This species is currently known only from its type locality, ‘ Kyoung Gyoung Nulla, Henzada, Pegu’, which likely corresponds to the modern Kyaunggon Township, Pathein District, Ayeyarwady Region, Myanmar. Remarks. This taxon was first mentioned by Godwin-Austen (1884) without a formal description, definition, or indication; only shell illustrations and the collection locality were provided. Consequently, the name does not meet the criteria for availability under the ICZN (1999: Art. 12.2) and is therefore unavailable. Godwin-Austen (1886) subsequently published a complete description of the taxon under the same name, thereby making ‘ henzadaensis ’ available. In the original description, Godwin-Austen (1886) clearly stated that only a single specimen existed in the Blanford collection. The holotype, which is affected by Byne’s disease and consequently fragile, is illustrated here for the first time.
