Remarks.
This is a new record for Penang Hill. The shell spire is slightly raised, and the shell whorls are more rapidly expanded compared to other Microcystina species from Penang Hill. On the upper shell, there are densely spirally arranged pits on the apical whorls, transitioning to densely placed spiral grooves on the subsequent whorls, which become more densely placed towards the periphery. Below the shell, there are densely placed spiral grooves that continue from the upper shell and fade away towards the umbilicus.
