This article is a stub, so it has a lot of room for improvement.

The one-sentence lead section identifies the subject as a "species of sea snail" and describes its scientific classification. The content includes a brief description, their geographical location, and a few references. The tone and style is hard to detect, since the actual text is so concise and neutral.

The references are not very current, there is one book reference from 1884, and two online sources from 2011. The first online source is from the World Register of Marine Species and the other is from Gastropods.com. Gastropods.com is a retired British computer-industry worker turned independent sheller who built his site from his worldwide exploits to find new shells and their places of origin. The World Register of Marine Species (WoRMS) is a comprehensive taxonomic database of marine organisms. These references seem reputable, but painfully out of date. This is less important with a species of sea snail than other topics, but the article needs to be updated and expanded upon. There are no discussions on the Talk page, but there is a notice that the article is within the scope of WikiProject Gastropods--but it is ranked as "low-importance".
