- Type Locality: British Guayana [=Guyana].
- Lectotype: BMNH 1841.1.26.5.
- Remarks: Lectotype or is this a Holotype by monotypy? This species was placed in Castalia by both Simpson (1900) and Haas (1969). An examination of the type clearly shows it to be synonymous with Castaliella sulcata (Krauss, 1849), both of which were described from northern South America.
