Comment	For illustrations see Cochran, 1941; Williams, 1963; Schwartz and Henderson, 1985. Sexual dimorphism: the carolinensis and hendersoni clades are the most extreme both in male facial elongation and the degree of sexual dimorphism (Sanger et al. 2013). Species group: Deiroptyx hendersoni species group (fide NICHOLSON et al. 2012).
Etymology	Named after Dr. John Brooks Henderson Jr. (1870-1923), American physician, naturalist, and amateur malacologist, specializing in West Indian shells.
