Description
The length of the shell attains 15.5 mm, its diameter 5.5 mm.
The graceful, reddish brown shell is much effused. The whorls are narrow and elongate. The sutures are impressed. The shell is spirally striate, decussated by growth lines. The outer lip is thin and scarcely sinuate.[2]
The species was described from a single broken specimen. The holotype has not been found.
Distribution
This marine species was found in the Pacific Ocean off Neeah Bay, Washington, USA.
gollark: They use flash storage, which... has electrons stored in tiny capacitor things where the charge persists for ages, or something.
gollark: There's a new ATX12VO standard which drops everything but 12V because it's not used much, apparently.
gollark: For now it'd be neat if there were actually good AR glasses available. Google Glass got killed off, and there was this company called North doing similar stuff but... Google bought them and killed them off too.
gollark: Brains are very adaptable, so perhaps you could just dump data into some neurons in some useful format and hope it learns to decode it.
gollark: I'd be *interested* in brain-computer-interface stuff, but it'll probably be a while before it develops into something useful and the security implications are very ææææaa.
