Distribution.

Widespread in Peninsular Malaysia ( Vermeulen et al. 2015). Elsewhere, from Sundaland to Australia and the Pacific islands ( Vermeulen et al. 2015).

Remarks.

Shell shape similar to Kaliella doliolum (Pfeiffer, 1846). Radial rib density highly variable, from very fine growth lines to coarse ribs. Distinguished from K. doliolum by the presence of fine spiral lines and absent or indistinct radial ribs at the umbilical section of the whorls. This is a synanthropic species.
