According to Tryon the radula of this species is still unknown, and I am not aware that 

 it has since been described. Its location amongst the Aniphiperasidae has even been doubtful. 

 In an old radula of this species from Amboina I see that by the characteristic comblike uncini 

 the genus belongs without doubt to that family. The teeth of the central field are however 

 sufficiently different from its allies to consider the genus Calpurnus as a valid one. The rhachidian 

 tooth (R) has a broad body, with two wings near the base and a very large central cusp, 

 with one or two small denticles at its base. The laterals (i) have a subquadrangular body and 

 a very long archlike cusp, with a small denticle about halfway; these teeth are quite different 

 from those of other species of this family figured by Troschel.

The specimen is not quite adult, the peristome is still rather thin ; it is covered by a 

 comparatively thick fibrous epidermis.
