Shell description
The dextral shell is conic and solid. The shell has six whorls. The glossy color is a uniform white, or ivory yellow with a white sutural line or either of these tints with a burnt sienna band immediately above a wider and darker band. The suture is margined. The lip is not expanded and has a brownish edge; the internal rib is white, or sometimes the whole lip is pale-pink. The white columellar fold is rather strong and abrupt.[2]
The height of the shell is 16.3 mm. The width of the shell is 9.7 mm.[2]

gollark: I have no idea exactly how it works, but basically it's effectively transparent and you just get more cores/threads.
gollark: Maybe you can try optimizing it a bit.
gollark: What project is this?
gollark: Don't ask about asking to ask, ask to ask about asking.
