Description
The length of an adult shell varies between 7.4 mm and 12.5 mm. The whorls are not shouldered. The axial ribs do not undulate on base. The spiral threads are microscopic or absent, except on the rostrum. The terminal varix is strong. The subsutural region is not contrastingly dark. The base of the body whorl shows a row of weak white pustules.[2]
Distribution
This marine species occurs off in the Indian Ocean off Mozambique
gollark: I would dump it into SQLite and run queries on it, because I like SQLite.
gollark: I'm sure Intel *want* to make stuff themselves, but despite repeated promises have massively underdelivered and run behind.
gollark: (also, for Discord I use the browser version which can't read keys when its tab isn't selected, so this is still usefulish)
gollark: For non-Discord applications.
gollark: I wrote a python program to implement push to talk on Linux by (un)muting the microphone: https://github.com/osmarks/random-stuff/blob/master/ptt.py
