Scutalus macedoi is a species of tropical air-breathing land snail, a pulmonate gastropod mollusk in the family Bulimulidae.
This species was described from Capillacocha, 11°10’09’S 076°02’25’W, 4150 m, Junín Region, Peru.[2]
Breure (2010)[2] recorded it for the first time from the western slopes of the Cordillera Occidental near Laguna El Viuda, 11°21’45’S 076°38’23’W, 4450 m, Canta Province, Lima Region, Peru.[2]
The material from Canta province has the upper whorls reddish-blue and the specimens are more slender than those shown in the original figure of Weyrauch.[2] However, compared to paratypes (RMNH 55449/5), the shell shape is similar.[2]
