In 1994 R.N. Kilburn disputed the attribution by Charles Hedley (1922) of Pleurotoma undaticostataReeve, 1845 to the genus Anacithara, because the original figure by Reeve showed a shell that is too fusiform, and lacked further detail. The holotype of this species as described by Reeve is lost, making it impossible to describe this species accurately. [2] [3]
