The shell is narrowly but deeply umbilicate, rimate, 

 straightly pyramidal, of a cinnamon-buff or paler tint, some- 

 what translucent, closely and delicately striate. Whorls all 

 convex, the last inflated basally, contracted behind the lip and 

 ascending forward. The aperture is rotund, obstructed by 6 

 principal teeth, placed at about equal intervals (angular, 

 parietal and columellar lamellae, upper and lower palatal and 

 basal plicae) , all but the parietal, marginal ; upper palatal plica 

 tubercular, the lower larger, pliciform. Small secondary 

 plicae stand between the primaries on the lip, and small lamel- 

 lae on the parietal wall (those at the angles more emphatic), 

 and above the columellar lamella. The lip is well expanded 

 and thickened within. 



Length 4, diam. above aperture 2.35 mm. ; 7y 2 whorls. 



''Animal entirely blue-gray, very similar to that of P. pago- 

 dula; carries the shell upright" (Clessin). 



Carinthia, Carniola, Croatia and Dalmatia; eastern border 

 of Venetia ; type loc. on the Loibl, on the northern confines of 

 Carniola. Lives in moist, shady places, on walls and rocks, 

 and is generally covered with dirt.
