Description
SHELL. Closely spaced riblets on last part of protoconch. Teleoconch spotless, with strong and well-spaced ribs. Lip is rather weak. Columellar lobe bent inwardly to cover umbilicus.
MEASUREMENTS. 2 ♀♀: whorls =8.1–8.6, H = 6.7–7.2 mm, H/W=2.66–2.89, roundness=0.16–0.17, ribs incl.= 57–57°, apert. incl.= 21–23°, ribs/mm 1 st wh.= 5–8, ribs/mm 4 th wh.=5–7.
FEMALE GENITAL ORGANS. As in C. (T.) stussineri.
Remarks
This species is considered widespread with several subspecies all along the Balkan Peninsula, reaching south Greece with C. (T.) gracile subaiorum Schütt, 1977. Our findings, however, seem to indicate that it has in fact a limited range. Its p-distances from taxa currently considered as subspecies like stussineri and reitteri are 2.9 and 3.6%, respectively.
