Description
There is little morphological variation in the material when the conch proportions are regarded. specimen MB.C.29674 is an incomplete but comparatively well-preserved specimen with
52 mm
diameter (
Fig. 17A
). It is extremely discoidal (ww/wh =0.24) and evolute (uw/dm =0.48) with a compressed, parallel-sided whorl profile with flat venter and an angular ventrolateral shoulder. The sculpture consists, on the last volution of the phragmocone as well as the body chamber, of sharp and slightly sigmoidal ribs on the flanks; on half a volution around 20 of such ribs can be counted.
The suture line of specimen MB.C.29674 has a short external lobe with concave flanks and bifid prongs (
Fig. 17D
). The ventrolateral saddle is asymmetric and appears dorsally inclined. The adventive lobe is semicircular in shape with twelve small notches of equal size. In contrast to this is the lateral lobe almost flat at its base; it is also serrated by numerous small notches.
There is some variation in the shape of the venter. In contrast to specimen MB.C.29674, the other two figured specimens MB.C.29672 (
Fig. 17B
) and MB.C.29670 (
Fig. 17C
) show a less flattened or even a rounded venter. These
two specimens
do not show as sharp ribs as specimen MB.C.29674.
Remarks
Shevyrevites shevyrevi
differs from
S. nodosus
in the lack of the coarse nodes of the subadult stage and from
S. corrugatus
sp. nov.
in the much coarser and less numerous ribs.
