Description

In going through the Roy Bell Collection a specimen was picked out from 60 fathoms off Twofold Bay, which agrees very well with this species, the length of the specimen 3 mm. This is a new record for New South Wales. The narrow top of the body whorl and more complete involution of the spire separate it from M. amphora.
