( Figure 8 View FIGURE 8 M– O)
Distribution. Northern Zululand, Kosi Bay to Leadsman Shoal; primarily 50–100 m (living 52–54 m).
Notes. A deeper water stomatelline with a crenulate shoulder on spire whorls; body whorl with coarse subsutural folds and two nodular cords, one at shoulder and one just above periphery; intermediary spiral sculpture well developed; inner lip of aperture reflected over and closing umbilicus; shell variously mottled in shades of pink and red, commonly with spiral rows of brownish flecks, umbilical region white.
With its two nodular cords, this species resembles Microtis A. Adams, 1850 , but the living animal does not have the deeply bifid propodium reported to occur in that genus.
