The length of the shell attains 10 mm, its diameter 4 mm. (Original description in Latin) The shell is elongately ovate and pellucid, being finely striated in a transverse direction and marked by irregular lines of growth. The
vertex is depressed and is perforated at the center, from which point the
lip rises. The
aperture is extremely narrow at the upper part and is produced slightly above the vertex; toward the base, it becomes gradually dilated and effuse. The
columella is very short and arched, and it is abruptly truncated in the same manner as is seen in the genus
Achatina. ==Distribution==
