Description

The length of the shell attains 14 mm, its diameter 4 mm.

(Original description) The shell is narrowly fusiform, attenuate at both ends. Its aspect is smooth, graceful, thin and translucent. The spire is prominent, acute, equalling the aperture, milky white. The base of the shell is chesnut, but the apex is stained, fulvous, and on the body whorl zoned with four bands of very pale yellow. The shell contains eight whorls, sloping, obliquely ribbed. The ribs are smooth, rounded, slightly raised, obtusely angular above, obsolete anteriorly. The suture is well impressed. The aperture is narrow and oblong. The outer lip is thin. The inner lip is reflected.[2]

gollark: Stuff runs at those frequencies because the electromagnetic spectrum is pretty heavily government-regulated, with governments actually selling off access to most of it to companies, but most places allow use of 2.4 and 5GHz or so.
gollark: There are also different WiFi standards for packing higher data rates into whatever frequency range, some of which work, I think, by using several streams at different frequencies combined.
gollark: 2.4GHz and 5GHz are different, er, frequencies, though stuff doesn't run at exactly those frequencies but generally around them.
