Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Taxobox
Amphicyclotulus amethystinus is a species of tropical land snail with a gill and an operculum, a terrestrial gastropod mollusk in the family Neocyclotidae.
Shell description
The shell is smooth, shining, not striate spirally, generally somewhat more depressed, deep chestnut or reddish brown. Whorls are a little flattened near the suture.[1] The species may have subtle spiral striation, although there exists considerable variation; axial growth lines are clearly visible.[2]
The operculum is horny, diaphanous, concave externally, cartilaginous within, the nucleus projecting internally; with from ten to fourteen very narrow whorls, their rather lamellar outer edges slightly free.[1]
Amphicyclotulus amethystinus has spiral threads absent or only weakly present.[2] There are found only two species in the genus Amphicyclotulus in Dominica. The other species is Amphicyclotulus dominicensis and it has spiral cords clearly present and raised.[2]
Robert John Lechmere Guppy (1868)[1] noted that this species is not found above 1000 m. Although he recognized two "forms", he did not recognize two separate species. George French Angas (1884)[3] subsequently recorded "Cyclophorus amethystinus" from altitudes above 1200 m. Paul Bartsch (1942)[4] restricted the name amesthystinus to Guppy’s var. β, the "smooth, shining, not striate spirally" form.[2]
Distribution
This species is endemic to in Dominica.[2]
The type locality is Laudat, Dominica.[2] The holotype is in National Museum of Natural History under number 535856.[2]
