Distribution.

Known from Perak only ( Maassen 2001, Siriboon et al. 2014).

Remarks.

Shell size varies. Differs from Discatemon leptoglyphus in the prominence of lamella, the absence of a peripheral keel and having more bulbous whorls. Prior to this, Davison (1991) reported D. plussensis from Gunung Tchehel and a few hills near Sungai Siput North only.
