Material examined
Fray Jorge National Park (30°40'S, 71°40'W), Region of Coquimbo, July 2006, RCG (unnumbered), 3 specimens.
Diagnosis
This elongated Plectostylus species has a thin and somewhat fusiform shell, with an acute, long spire and five slightly convex whorls, sculptured with minute granules and growth lines. The aperture is narrow and descending, somewhat expanded in the anterior side. Periostracum is thin, opaque and yellowish.
