Description

The size of an adult shell varies between 20 mm and 35 mm.

In view of the ambiguity of Reeve's figure it might be well to say that this species has no axial sculpture on the whorls between the carina and the base except what may be due to accidents during growth. The surface is normally smooth and polished, above and below the carina, and of a delicate pale brown color.[3]

Distribution

This marine species occurs from the Gulf of California, West Mexico to Peru and also off the Galápagos.

gollark: I'm using `warp`, which has nice HTTP combinatory things which are also glacially slow to compile, `sqlx`, which type-checks SQL queries at compile time but is also probably quite slow, and `horrorshow`, a compile-time HTML templating library.
gollark: Well, I use a lot of compile-time stuff like macros, and rustc is not very fast.
gollark: It's a small project currently.
