Description
(Original description) The rather elongated shell is thin and somewhat transparent. Its color is whitish, rather indistinctly streaked or waved with yellow. It contains eight whorls. These are transversely lineated and ridged, very finely reticulated also with striae. A number of lines and ridges run transversely across the whorls, but none longitudinally. The columella is spirally twisted. The siphonal canal is very short, a little recurved. The outer lip is simple and sharp. The sinus is small. [2]

gollark: The only infinite scroll thing on my website is the infinite lorem ipsum page, as a joke which probably will eat all your RAM.
gollark: Not deleting the top entries you've scrolled past, or something.
gollark: Lazy loading doesn't stop it from using lots of RAM. They just programmed it poorly, I guess.
gollark: I run Discord in the browser, personally, to mildly reduce RAM use and data gathering, and use old reddit because new reddit is just terrible.
gollark: I've not heard of that, but that's !!FUN!! too!
