Endoplocus sp. 2

Plate 13: figs 5–8

Material.

Saal: 3 specimens, SNSB-BSPG 2016 XXI 1912 –1914.

Description.

Shell highly trochoid; illustrated specimen 74 mm high; spire whorls significantly wider than high; sutures impressed; last whorl high; shell sides convex with evenly rounded transition to convex base; no ornament visible; aperture (always damaged) elongated, narrow, actute adapically; at least one columellar, parietal and palatal plait present.

Remarks.

The available material is too sparse and poorly preserved for a sufficient description. The relationships to Endoplocus inflatus remain unclear. The latter may have more and lower spire whorls.
