Type material. Holotype — Cossmann 1897, p. 340, pl. 8, figs. 10, 15. The type measures 73 mm in length and 13 mm in width ( Cossmann 1897).

Type locality. Bois-Gouët , France [Bartonian] .

Diagnosis. The shell is slender with fine spiral lines, with 2.5 protoconch whorls. The labial callus is moderately well-developed. The labrum is not thickened. The posterior canal is moderately antispiral continuing to the apex. The columella is bent backward basally.

Distribution. EOCENE— England London Clays ( Tennant 1847). Bartonian— France Bois-Gouët, Loire-Atlantique ( Jung 1974; Caze et al. 2010); Arthon, Loire-Atlantique ( Caze et al. 2010); Blaye, Gironde ( Caze et al. 2010). Ypresian— Italy northern regions ( Jung 1974); San Giovanni Ilarione ( de Gregorio 1880).

Remarks. This species is recognisable for its long slender shape, which is in contrast to other members of the European Paraseraphs . While similar to P. cantamessae , it differs in geological setting.
