Distribution.

Found throughout Perak only ( Maassen 2001).

Remarks.

Shell dextral, rarely sinistral. Distinct from all sympatric congeners by its rather distended ultimate whorl and reflected aperture which extends to the right of the body whorl. Sinistral specimens of this species were labelled as Diplommatina sp. in Davison (1991).
