Distribution. United Arab Emirates ( Biggs 1973; Albano et al. 2019).

Remarks. Biggs (1973) described this species but did not introduce a name because the specimens he had available lacked the protoconch, a fundamental character for species identification in Triphoridae . Specimens with this name were found in the NHMUK but the name is unavailable as never formally introduced. Albano et al. (2019) figured the specimens.
