moderately in size as added; sutures on spiral side strongly curved, depressed; on umbilical side sinuously radial, depressed; surface smooth, densely perforate, imperforate on
the peripheral margin; umbilicus almost closed, aperture interiomarginal, extraumbilical-umbilical, a low slit bordered by a pronounced, wide lip. |
