Description
The shell grows to a length of 28 mm. The whorls are smooth. The shell is longitudinally ribbed below the tuberculate periphery. The tubercles and ribs are slight, the latter curved, and white upon a brownish rose-colored surface.[3]
Distribution
This species occurs in the demersal zone of the Pacific Ocean off the Galapagos Islands.
gollark: I only have something like three installed as far as I know, and they're all broken.
gollark: I'd kind of expect other people to have noticed and reported this if it is actually a general problem with these versions, since I'm using calibre and qt from the repos.
gollark: I tried downgrading it from 5.14.2 to 5.14.1 or something, but that didn't do anything, and I probably can't downgrade further without just reverting all my package versions to a week or so ago, which is not ideal.
gollark: Anyone know why the Qt-using applications (deepin-screenshot, multiMC, calibre) on my laptop recently started segfaulting after I updated my system?
gollark: There *are* already non-docker container tools.
