Remarks. The investigated specimen is a very small juvenile and has a well preserved, seemingly planispiral apex. No muscle scar was observed. The specimen resembles the type species in having a similar shell shape and concentric ornamentation. One small juvenile specimen with an asymmetric spiral apex is noticed. The placement of this specimen to 'Lepetopsis' is uncertain.
