The present catalogue lists the type specimens of land snail species, collected from Taiwan and deposited in the Natural History Museum, London. Thirty-seven nominal species described by Pfeiffer, Adams, Nevill, Moellendorff, Godwin-Austen and Gude were traced. I present here information on type status, collection data obtained from the registers and labels of each collection, and annotations on the current taxonomic affiliation. Lectotypes of 28 nominal (sub)species were newly designated. One holotype was fixed originally and two holotypes newly fixed by monotypy. Syntypes of two species and paralectotypes of three species were also discovered in the Museum. No specimen of the species Pupina adamsi Sowerby, 1878, which was supposed to be deposited in the NHM, was found. Pictures of the name-bearing types are provided for further research on biodiversity of the island.
本目录列出了采自台湾并保存在伦敦自然历史博物馆的陆地蜗牛物种模式标本。追溯到了由菲佛、亚当斯、内维尔、莫伦多夫、戈德温 - 奥斯汀和古德描述的37个命名物种。在此，我提供了关于模式状态的信息、从每个标本收藏的登记册和标签中获得的采集数据，以及关于当前分类归属的注释。新指定了28个命名（亚）物种的选模式。最初确定了1个正模，通过单型性新确定了2个正模。在该博物馆还发现了2个物种的合模式标本和3个物种的副选模式标本。未找到理应保存在自然历史博物馆的1878年索厄比命名的亚当斯蛹螺标本。提供了具名模式的图片，以供对该岛生物多样性进行进一步研究。
