Vertigo genesii , common name the round-mouthed whorl snail , is a species of minute air-breathing land snail , a terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusc or micromollusc in the family Vertiginidae , the whorl snails.[3]
A fossil shell of Vertigo genesii .
Shell description [ edit ]
The shell is very small, ovate, obtuse, indistinctly, spaced striate, glossy purplish brown. The shell has 4½ whorls , that are rather convex, high, rapidly increasing, joined by a somewhat impressed suture , the penult large, almost ventricose. Umbilical opening is moderate.[4]
The aperture is semirotund, nearly quadratic, without any folds. Peristome is scarcely expanded, thickened liplike, bordered with bluish black, the margins are connected by a very weak callus, the right margin is arched at the insertion.[4]
The width of the adult shell is 1.03–1.20 mm, the height is 1.63–2.00 mm.[5]
