Dicharax species group 5

Remarks

This species group is characterized by shells with an elevated spire and relatively low R3 swelling. Other traits are variable. It is likely that D. globosus and D. vestitus are relatives, because other than the shell height they share the strong ribs, which are peculiarly oblique. Dicharax burchi, and D. verrucosus are also similar in the R3 swelling that is situated close to the aperture. Dicharax conicus may not be related to the other high-spired species, and can be recognized by its peculiar outer peristome.
