Type locality.

"in montibus Arakanensibus".

Material examined.

Moditoung, NHMUK 1906.4.4.53 (holotype [single specimen of both the nominotypical form and var. minor were mentioned in the original description]), and two additional non-type specimens in the same lot from Alori Khyoung and Mamya Khyoung.

Remarks.

All three specimens are strongly weathered; therefore, their sculpture could not be fully distinguished. Protoconch low, without recognisable sculpture; R1 seemingly smooth; R2 with dense ribs, which were all broken.
