Angustopila huoyani Jochum, Slapnik & Páll-Gergely 2014

Description

provided by Zookeys
Shell thin, greyish white, semi opaque; conical, widest at its base, with a homogeneous powdery superficial texture and regularly increasing, shouldered whorls separated by deep suture; smooth with no notable spiral or radial sculpture. It is characterized by very fine irregular axial lamellae and reticulating microgranules producing the powdery superficial texture; protoconch shows reticulating granules and recognisable radial lines only at the upper part of the first whorl; aperture semi-circular, slightly oblique from ventral view; peristome very slightly thickened and reflexed; parietal callus adnate (attached to the penultimate whorl); aperture with two well-developed but short denticles, one on the parietal and the other on the palatal side; umbilicus very deep and narrow.
