Diagnosis
Diagnosis. Shell with band; not striate. Aperture indistinctly with angular tubercle. Most swollen part at penultimate and body whorls. With 6.250–7.250 whorls; height 18.3–20.8, diam. maj. 11.3–15.8. Re-description of Shell. Cylindrical-conic; apex minutely protruded. Most swollen part at penultimate and body whorls. Shell dextral; thin; solid; opaque; glossy; not speckled; not spirally grooved; with 6.250–6.563 – 7.250 whorls. Whorls not shouldered; flattened. Growth lines usually not very clear. Embryonic shell smooth; polished; with 1.500–1.594 – 1.750 whorls. Postnuclear whorls smooth. Suture normal, without narrow defined zone on beneath whorl. Last whorl gradually ascending towards aperture; rounded at periphery; without smoothed spiral peripheral depression nor rugate region. Shell 18.3 –20.0– 20.8 high; 11.3 –14.0– 15.8 in diam. maj. Height/width ratio 1.26–1.42 – 1.74. Aperture in a plane; completely attached to body whorl; subcircular; not adnate; slightly oblique; not armed; indistinctly with angular tubercle; 9.4–11.3 – 12.7 high; 7.5–9.4 – 10.2 wide. Ratio of shell height to aperture height 1.61–1.76 – 2.10. Peristome reflexed, without distinct cuff (which is considerably broad); expanded; sharp. Parietal callus indistinct. Columellar margin reflexed. Columella vertical. Outer edge of columellar lip vertical. Umbilicus narrowly open. Apical whorls normally coloured or differently tinted.
