The sculpture varies somewhat in prominence. Usually the spiral strixe are 
more or less deeply impressed and crossed by fine longitudinal lines of growth (forma 
typica). Sometimes the longitudinal lines have the shape of fine lamellxe and are as 
conspicuous as the spiral sculpture itself, which consists of broader and very shallow 
furrows, sometimes limited by fine lamelliform riblets (var. gigantea). 
The colour is pale yellowish, iridescent, to grayish green and dark bluish. 
Var. gigantea is always light-coloured.
