Ena (?Heudiella) phaedusoides
was proposed as a replacement name for Buliminus clausiliaeformis
Bavay and Dautzenberg 1912 (p. 27-28; pl. 4, figs. 4-6 [images above])
non Möllendorff, 1901 by Thiele (1931: 521;
fig. 611). Zilch (1959: 187) placed this taxon in Coccoderma
Möllendorff, 1901 [Type Buliminus granulatus Möllendorff, 1901 OD
(Schileyko, 1998: 194-5); see image of lectotype from Yen (1939: pl. 7,
fig. 14)] ] non Zittel, 1887 [Pisces: a Coelocanth!], which is
plausible assignment but an unavailable generic name. Schileyko (1998:
212) states this species could be a Pseudonapaeus Westerlund,
1887 [Type Buliminus asiaticus von Martens, 1881 SD Lindholm,
1922; see image from Schileyko (1998: 197; fig. 243A)] or Mirus
Albers, 1850 [Type Bulimus cantori Philippi, 1844 monotypy; see
image from Yen (1939: pl. 7, fig. 1)]. We agree with the latter
assignment. Heudiella Annandale, 1924 [Type H. oliveriana
Annandale, 1924 OD; see type figure from Schileyko (1998: 212; fig.262)]
from Chekiang, China is apparently a juvenile clausiliid and not a
suitable placement for the species under consideration. Bavay, A. and P. Dautzenberg, 1912. Description de coquilles nouvelles de l'Indo-Chine (7e suite). Jour. Conchyliologie LX: 1-54, plates I-VI.
