The specific epithet fragilis is from the Latin language and means "fragile", it refers to the thin shell.[1] Distribution
The type locality is Quebrada Santa Maria, 03°40’53’S 080°26’10’W, 25 m, Tumbes Region, Peru.[1] DescriptionBostryx fragilis is characterized by the whitish lines on the thin, translucent shell, the tawny-brownish upper whorls and the prominent last whorl.[1]The shell up to 18.9 mm in height, two times as long as wide, narrowly perforate, elongate, with hardly convex sides and fragile.[1] Colour is whitish on a translucent background, the upper whorls are becoming gradually tawny-brown towards the apex.[1] The surface is slightly shining, the incrassate growth striae overlaid on the last whorls by whitish, low, axial costulae, which are partly forked and do not always cover the whole whorl, but may end in between the sutures or shell base.[1] Upper whorls are with fine, interrupted spiral threads.[1] Protoconch is with wrinkles, mostly broken into granules and crossed by finely incised spiral lines.[1] The shell has 6.8 whorls, that are hardly convex.[1] The suture is slightly impressed.[1] The aperture is elongate-subovate, 1.61 times as long as wide, 0.40 times the total height.[1] Peristome is thin and simple. Columellar margin is nearly straight, very narrowly dilated above.[1] The shell has 6.6-7.1 whorls. The width of the shell is 8.0-9.2 mm. The height of the shell is 16.9-18.9 mm. The width of the aperture is 4–5 mm. The height of the aperture is 6.6-8.2 mm. The height of the last whorl is 9.2-11.9 mm.[1] The holotype has 6.8 whorls and dimensions of the holotype are as follows: The width of the shell is 8.7 mm. The height of the shell is 18.0 mm. The width of the aperture is 4.5 mm. The height of the aperture is 7.3 mm. The height of the last whorl is 11.3 mm.[1] There is a morphological resemblance between the species mentioned above and some Bulimulus species occurring in the same region, e.g. Bulimulus inconspicuus Haas, 1949, both in general shell shape and - superficially - also in protoconch sculpture.[1] The relationships and phylogeography of these two genera in this region warrant further study.[1] ReferencesThis article incorporates CC-BY-3.0 text from the reference [1] 1. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 Breure A.
