Diagnosis

This species differs from the other three species of the same species group by the smooth R2.

Type material examined

MYANMAR • 22 syntypes in two vials ( Fig. 39F–J); Fort Stedman , Burma; Woodthorpe leg.; NHMUK 1903.7 About NHMUK .1.3064 .

Additional material examined

MYANMAR • 2 shells; Burma; E.R. Sykes coll.; acc. no. 1825; NHMUK 20150126.

Type locality

“Fort Stedman, Burma ”.

Differential diagnosis

There are several species with smooth R2 surface (mostly in Dicharax species group 8), but D. woodthorpei can be distinguished from them by the relatively large shell, the double R3 swelling and the rounded aperture.
