The species first collected by Yoshio Kondo, Albert B. Bronson, and Ramon San Nicolas in 1952, and named by Kondo in honor of the late Daniel B. Langford, who had compiled a massive collection of Pacific marine shells between 1893 and 1952.{{Cite journal |last=Kondo |first=Yoshio |date=1970 |title=SOME ASPECTS OF MARIANA ISLANDS PARTULIDAE (Mollusca, Pulmonata) |url=http://hbs.bishopmuseum.org/pubs-online/pdf/op24-5.pdf |journal=OCCASIONAL PAPERS of Bernice P.
