Otani , 11 October 2018 . Diagnosis. A Clostophis species with detached and descending last quarter of the body whorl, a comparatively narrow umbilicus, and a weak parietal tooth. Description. Shell conical, upper whorls growing regularly, and seemingly are sunken into the last whorl, i.e., last whorl coils around penultimate whorl more apically in position than it would be expected from the growth rate of initial whorls. Whorls rounded, showing a very slight indication of a blunt shoulder. Tuba (i.e., last quarter whorl) strongly detached from penultimate whorl. Protoconch consisting of 1.5 whorls, pitted and spirally striated. Entire shell with 4.5 whorls. Umbilicus oval doe to the irregularly formed body whorl; occupies ca. one third of the shell width. Entire teleoconch with strong, elevated, rather equidistant spiral striae, and some weak, irregular radial growth lines. Some growth lines close to the suture on dorsal surface strong, almost rib-like. Aperture suboval. Sinulus wide. Parietal tooth weak and relatively short. Peristome expanded but not reflected. Remarks. See under C. proboscideus .
