Type localities.
“ Perak ” (Bukit Pondong, Malaysia) (H. hungerfordianum); “ Kuankalong Limestone Hill, Satul Province, 6°52'59"N, 100°07'38"E, 110 meters elevation ”, Thailand (H. satulensis); “ Samui islands, Gulf of Siam ”, Thailand (H. striolatum).
Differential diagnosis.
See under H. sichang and H. loei.
Distribution.
This species is widely spread in Malaysia and adjacent regions of Thailand. Also known from Myanmar where the northernmost locality of the species is known (Tongkerd et al. 2024). The southernmost localities are positioned in and near the city of Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia).
Remarks.
This species can have a more or less elongated spire. The umbilicus is usually consistent in its width but we have observed slight variations. The apertural dentition is variable in terms of the number of smaller barriers between the five main ones (angular, parietal, upper palatal, lower palatal and columellar). Gyliotrachela striolata was known only from a single damaged type, which retained its last whorl only. Even in damaged condition, it was clear that there are no differences between G. striolata and H. hungerfordianum which is why they are treated conspecific. Hypselostoma satulensis was described from Satun province in S Thailand and shows no morphological differences from H. hungerfordianum. Its type locality is practically located in the middle of the distribution area of H. hungerfordianum. We have examined the material from northern Thailand hosted in UF with the following data: 2 shells; Mae Hong Son Province, Tham Lod Cave, 1.5 km SE Ban Tham Lod Village; 19°34'N, 98°9'E; 720 m a. s. l.; 19 Mar. 1988; K. Auffenberg leg.; locality code KA-0576; UF 345527. Since this locality is quite far from the actual distribution area of this species, we believe that this sample was mislabelled and that this species actually does not occur in Mae Hong Son Province.
