§1

Description

The size of the shell attains 2.5 mm. In its general appearance this marine species resembles a true Lissospira, but the umbilical chink is channeled and defined by a raised thread and the aperture is modified by the body whorl to which the peritreme is more attached than in a typical species. It is similar in form to Lissospira dalli but larger, without sculpture and with the columellar lip less flattened.

§2

Range & habitat

This species occurs in the Eastern Atlantic Ocean off Georges Bank at a depth of 1790 m.
