Distribution.

Known from Gunung Kanthan and Gunung Tasek only, but surrounding hills have yet to be adequately surveyed.

Remarks.

Spire height, radial rib density and whorl shape variable. Differ from Opisthostoma cf. subconicum in having rounder whorls, finer but distinct radial ribs and the direction the aperture is facing.
