Remarks.
This species was originally described from "Montagnes de Chaudoe Cambodge" [Chau Doc, An Giang Province, Vietnam] probably in the area bordering Cambodia and Vietnam. The original description of this species was brief and without illustration. This species has a sinistral elongate conic to slightly ovate conic shell, with 7 to 9 whorls, which increase regularly; cylindrical, having convex whorl and wide and impressed suture. The shell surface possesses fine growth lines, and the periostracum is thin and brownish. The last whorl is well rounded and without keel near aperture and has a similar diameter to the penultimate whorl. The shell colour is light brownish and translucent (becoming whitish when worn). The aperture is semi-ovate, with expanded and whitish lip and thin or thickened with whitish parietal callus. The columella is straight and dilated, with a rimate umbilicus.
Based on the original description,
A. chaudoensis
can be distinguished from
A. siamensis obesula
in having an elongate cylindrical shell and higher number of whorls, while the latter species has an ovate conic shell and a smaller number of whorls.
