Cilia, D. P., 2010. A new species of Chloritis H. Beck, 1837 (Pulmonata: Camaenidae) from Sulawesi, Indonesia. Visaya, 3 (1), 69-72.

Abstract: The camaenid pulmonate Chloritis johannisi n. sp. is described from the island of Peleng, Sulawesi, Indonesia, by means of conchological characteristics. It can be distinguished from the sympatric congener Chloritis gruneri by the presence of periostracal hair and from the similar Chloritis talabensis by size, colour, hair density and whorl number.
