There seems to be confusion about the accepted name of this species. According to the University of Tokyo, the accepted name is Crassispira pseudoprincipalis,[2] while according to the World Register of Marine Species, the accepted name is Inquisitor pseudoprincipalis. Both rely on the basionym Pleurotoma (Drillia) pseudoprincipalis Yokoyama, 1920.
Description
The length of the shell attains 31.3 mm.
Distribution
This marine species occurs off Vietnam and in the Yellow Sea. Fossils were found in Pliocene strata in the Naganuma Formation at Kanagawa, Japan.

gollark: Is combat balance a sensible way to go anyway?
gollark: It is the time-honored method of all pack developers, except this pack doesn't use as much clay.
gollark: What options are there for automining anyway?
