Montenegrina drimmeri Feher & Szekeres, 2006 View in CoL Fig. 15N

Montenegrina drimmeri Fehér & Szekeres, 2006 in Erőss et al. 2006: 182-184, fig. 1. - Nordsieck 2009: 73.

Diagnosis.

Shell small, tumid. Lower whorls very pale, almost colorless. All whorls costate, ribs stronger, sharper and wider spaced toward the apex. Neck deep inflexed, densely costate. Basal and peripheral crests strong. Peristome attached, rounded to somewhat angular, with wide, simple margin. Lamellae superior and spiralis mostly do not overlap. In front view lamella inferior barely emerged, medium-bent subcolumellaris hidden, often not at all visible through the aperture. Plica principalis fused to the superior. Lunella dorsolateral, connected to the basalis. Subclaustralis shorter than the basalis, sulcalis residual or absent. Anterior plica superior separate from the lunella complex. Clausilium plate only barely visible through the aperture.
