Preece et al. 2022, page 99, Other Useful Citation of Paludomus stephanus Benson, 1836 "Neiber and Glaubrecht (2019) figured what they regarded as a “probable syntype” from “Sylhet” in the Museum of Comparative Zoology, Harvard (MCZH 8955 5) but there does not appear to be any documentation linking this shell to the Asiatic Society."
