Description

The length of the shell attains 9 mm, its diameter 2 mm.

(Original description) A very attenuate, fusiform, solid species. It is eight-whorled, inclusive of the two glassy shining apical, longitudinally strongly ribbed. The shell contains few ribs, seven on the body whorl, crossed spirally with few intersecting lirae, and between these run many fine striations. The aperture is ovate. The outer lip is thickened. The sinus is very obscure. The columella is straight. The siphonal canal is short.[2]

Distribution

This marine species occurs off Pakistan

gollark: Maybe it doesn't like printing.
gollark: Presumably it would still run the main function, right?
gollark: I'd bet that not every implementation *is* actually fully compliant with the specs.
gollark: JackMacWindows said something about it only working post-Kaby Lake, so presumably the µarch and UEFI version are related.
gollark: Two Kaby Lake computers and a Zen 1 one.
