Description

The length of the holotype attains (the early whorls lost) 26.5 mm, its diameter 8.3 mm; 6+1⁄2 whorls remaining.

(Original description) This species is very similar to Carinodrillia elocata , but it is more slender with a longer anterior canal and a deeper posterior sinus. The anal fasciole and the spaces between the spiral ridges are distinctly striate spirally, with in each interval about 6 striae. There are seven broad, rounded axial folds on the penultimate whorl and on the body whorl, weakening on the anal fasciole. On the face of the body whorl there are 18 narrow, high spiral ridges, a smaller cord above the upper one and a strong, acute cord below the suture. The outer lip is smooth within. The inner lip is a little raised. The anal sinus is deep, rounded posteriorly and contracted a little anteriorly. [2]

Distribution

Fossils of this marine species were found in Tertiary strata of the Dominican Republic.

Knefastia princeps is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Pseudomelatomidae, the turrids and allies. This magnificent species, one of the finest in a generally striking genus, appears nearest to K. dalli Bartsch among described forms, differing in its larger size, more slender form, the relatively longer and attenuate canal, the slender and well-spaced spiral cords, the very much fewer and less nodulous axial ribs, the more open sinus, and the warmer and brighter coloring, especially of the interior. The single example taken was dredged up alive.
