Species Pulleniatina praespectabilis Brönnimann & Resig 1971


Discussion / Comments:
Bolli & Saunders (1985):
The species is thought to have developed from P. primalis by the acquisition of a well rounded pseudo keel and by formation of a convexly rounded initial portion of the trochospire as seen in lateral view. Like P. spectabilis its occurrence is restricted to the Pacific province.
Chaisson & Leckie (1993):
Similar species: Pulleniatina praespectablilis is gradational between P. primalis and sensu stricto forms of P. spectabilis. P. praespectabilis has a distinctly more subrounded to subacute peripheral margin compared with P. primalis, but it is not as planoconvex nor does it have the distinctive peripheral flange of P. spectabilis.
