NHMUK 1903.7.1.2165 (10 shells; Fig. 17 G) from South Barak, Munipur (figured in Godwin-Austen 1897: pl. 66, fig. 6); Godwin-Austen coll. Diagnosis. Shell dextral, elongate, pupate-fusiform, translucent, pale yellowish. Whorls ~ 6–7, rounded; spire elongate-conical; suture wide, deep. Teleoconch with weak, irregularly spaced radial ribs throughout. Penultimate whorl equal to or slightly wider than last whorl. Aperture ovate; columellaris very weak, indistinct. Peristome expanded, multi-layered; lip slightly thickened; parietal callus thin, expanded. Columella thickened, straight; umbilicus closed. Distribution. This species was originally known only from its type locality in Manipur State, India. It was later reported from several localities in Bagmati and Sudurpashchim provinces, Nepal (Budha et al. 2015, 2017). Records from Myanmar, however, lack precise locality data (Gude 1921), and the presence there has not yet been reconfirmed. Remarks. There are two syntypes housed in The Manchester Museum, University of Manchester (EE. 3511 / 87) (McGhie 2008).
