Discussion / Comments:

Boudagher-Fadel et al. (1997):
Remarks: P. ruka s.s has five chambers in the penultimate whorl, but only four abutting the umbilicus in the final whorl. The dorsal surface is strongly convex (d/t = 0.5 approx.), the chambers are slightly depressed (h/L = 0.8 approx.) and increase in size gradually with growth (b/a = 1.8 approx.). The umbilicus is small (uh/u = 0.15 approx.) and the aperture is a narrow slit.
