Dicharax aspidentatus Gittenberger, Choki Gyeltshen & Sherub Sherub in Gittenberger et al., 2024: 199, figs 18, 21, 45.

Type locality

“between Duenmang Tsachu and Gongphu Zero Point, 24 km SE of Zhemgang, 335 m a.s.l., 27°02’N 90°48’E, scree in warm broadleaf forest” ( Bhutan).

Differential diagnosis

Probably the most similar species is D. rugosus due to the similar shell and aperture shape as well as rib density. However, that species has a shorter distance between the inner and outer peristomes and has a wider umbilicus. For the differences with other Bhutanese species see Gittenberger et al. (2024).
