Description

The length of the shell of this species attains 11 mm, its diameter 5 mm.

(Original description) The straight shell is cylindrical. It is semi-transparent white. The shell is sculptured throughout with fine spiral striae, becoming more numerous and closely set towards the base. The apex is very narrowly perforate. The aperture is narrow above but dilated below. The columella is obliquely arched. The peristome is simple and rises above the vertex.[1]

gollark: Applications have to handle them differently, and the kernel does too.
gollark: There's a significant difference between "send datagram" and "push to a stream" and, i don't know, "wait for an inbound TCP connection".
gollark: Still, though, I don't think having all this stuff as read/writeable "files" when the semantics are different is good.
gollark: I basically just want to receive packets from ff02::aeae port 44718 on all interfaces and send them too, and I can't tell what operations that maps to.
gollark: It does seem like the primitives are very irritating to make this multicasting thing work properly with.
