Description

Ogasawarana ogasawarana was originally described under the name Kaliella ogasawarana by American malacologist Henry Augustus Pilsbry in 1902.[2]

Pilsbry's original text (the type description) appeared in the key and it reads as follows:

Shell large for the genus, subperforate, conic, pale yellowish-corneous, subtransparent, glossy, smooth except for slight growth-lines. Spire almost straightly conic, the apex obtuse. Whorls 7½, somewhat convex, the last strongly angular at the periphery, moderately convex below. Aperture slightly curved, in crescent form, truncate at the ends; lip thin and acute, the columella concave, with narrowly reflexed margin. Alt. 5, diam. 5 mm. Hahajima, Ogasawara (Y. Hirase, No. 846).

gollark: Oh apioids, this file contains 7500 lines of code.
gollark: Which reminds me somehow, I should see if I can find a sane language with working LLVM bindings so I can see if it's practical to JIT-compile expressions for a graphing calculator for MAXIMUM SPEED.
gollark: Unfortunately, this is 3 hard.
gollark: I have a vague idea of osmarkscalculator™, which would be a good calculator™ (program), incorporating unit conversion, useful numerical algorithms, some symbolic maths features for things too, infinitely multivalued inverse functions via lazy sequences, etc.
gollark: Yes.
