Remarks – The species was recorded in the Middle Miocene to Early Pliocene of Europe. In the Badenian Central Paratethys it occurs in Austria, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Hungary, and Romania. T. swainsoni differs from T. perlongus in smaller size, and in morphology by rounded spire whorls, weakly denticulate aperture, thinner, wing-like varices, and finer spiral cords.
