Type material examined

INDIA • 3 syntypes; Shengorh Peak, Dafla Hills; Godwin-Austen coll.; NHMUK 1903.7 About NHMUK .1.2498 .

Type locality

“Shengorh Peak” and “Tánir ridge at 4000 feet ”.

Differential diagnosis

Dicharax tangmaiensis is larger, and has a shorter distance between the R3 swelling and the peristome. See also under D. plectocheilus .

Remarks

The shell regions and the sculpture are similar to D. digitatus , but the undulation of the peristome started anterior to the R3 swelling. Moreover, the R3 swelling is situated at a greater distance from the peristome edge. Therefore, D. subdigitatus is a species in its own right, instead of a subspecies of D. daflaensis .
