Remarks. Very common species that extends from Norway to off western Morocco and throughout the Mediterranean, in a wide bathymetric range 30–1000 m, occasionally deeper ( Oliverio et al. 1992; Bouchet & Warén 1993; Warén 1996; Cachia et al. 1996; Giribet & Peñas 1997; Gofas & Oliver 2011; Negri & Corselli 2016; Bitlis & Öztürk 2017). The shell is characterized by the opisthocline orientation of the peristome ( Fig. 5e View FIGURE 5 ). Protoconch sculptured by an irregular network ( Figs. 5f–g View FIGURE 5 ).
It was the most abundant species in studied the samples along with Obtusella macilenta , predominantly between 100 and 400 m in muddy sand bottoms. Its putative planktrotrophic larval development (deduced from its protoconch) enables a large dispersal capacity.
