Description

[edit]

The shell grows to a size of 5 mm.

(Description of Monilea inepta, originally in Latin) The small, solid, ovate-conical shell is encircled by articulated threads, one of which is more prominent, in rosy or clay-colored hues with paler intervals. The sutural region is tessellated, with 4 convex whorls and a blunt apex. The base is convex, with a moderate, plicate umbilicus encircled by a whitish band. The aperture is circular with a thick, simple lip, and the columella is smooth.[3]

Distribution

[edit]

This marine species occurs off South Japan, China; off Papua New Guinea and the Philippines. It has also been recorded in the Red Sea and off Madagascar.[1]
