Description

The shell size varies between 4 mm and 7 mm

The shell is slightly, narrowly shouldered, with 7-9 narrow ribs extending from the shoulder to the base, and wider interspaces. The whole surface covered with revolving striae. The color of the shell is yellowish white, orange or occasionally deep reddish brown. Paler specimens are sometimes indistinctly brown-banded below the periphery.[2]

Distribution

This species occurs in the Northeast Atlantic Ocean off Norway, in the North Sea off the British Isles, in the Atlantic Ocean off Ireland, Spain, Portugal and West Africa, and in the Mediterranean Sea and the Adriatic Sea

Fossils have been found in various Pliocene-Pleistocene strata in England, France, Spain and Italy. [3]

gollark: Arguably this defeats some of the point of containers, but whatever.
gollark: You can just give it privileged access of some kind.
gollark: How Dockerious.
gollark: Wait, you run your Prometheus exporters in separate containers to the actual services?
gollark: Just have a script order more RAM when you run out.
