Diaphera prima is a species of air-breathing land snail, a terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusk in the family Diapheridae. [1]
The specific name prima ( Latin for first) indicates that it is the first species of Diaphera confirmed in Thailand. [1]
Distribution
The type locality of Diaphera prima is Khao Cha Ang-Oan, Bor Thong, Chonburi Province, Thailand. [1]
Distribution of Diaphera prima include Eastern Thailand: Chonburi Province and Rayong Province. [1]
Description
The shell of Diaphera prima is oblong. The shell has 7-8 whorls. [1] The sculpture of the shell is smooth with short ribs below the suture. [1] The apex of the shell is obtuse and smooth. [1] The aperture is rounded with parietal lamella, basal lamella, columellar lamella and with two palatal lamellae. [1]
The width of the shell of the holotype is 2 mm. [1] The height of the shell of the holotype is 6.2 mm. [1]
