Material examined.

Sikkim, at 11,000 ft, coll. Dr. Stoliczka, NZSI M.8082 (syntype, labelled as holotype).

Remarks.

The original description does not mention the number of available specimens. Thus, the shell labelled as holotype is considered to be a syntype.

Protoconch low, without spiral striation, R1 with low, rather regular ribbing; surface of R2 wavy, ribs are blunt and only slightly elevated from the surface.
