Editor's comment Indeterminable species, its almost spherical, brownly annulated operculum and transversly striated tube are reminiscent of Vermiliopsis, but the pseudoperculum as figured in Bosc's plate 7 fig. 2, with smooth peduncle, is unlike that in Vermiliopsis striaticeps, the only species known in the genus with such a structure.
