Abstract

The paragraph "Dilatilabrum kathiawarae n. sp. can be differentiated from Dilatilabrum fortisi (Brongniart, 1823) in terms of overall shell shape. D. kathiawarae is obconical whereas D. fostisi is biconical in shape. Also, D. fortisi have wavy subsutural shelf with prominent subsutural nodes which is absent in D. kathiawarae. Dilatilabrum roegli Harzhauser, 2001 has a very sharp break at the transition from the subsutural shelf to the winged flank which is comparatively gentle in D. kathiawarae. Apart from that D. kathiawarae has straight, deep and impressed sutures and a narrow aperture compared to D. roegli. The latter has deeply incised, irregular wavy sutures and broader apertural width. Dilatilabrum sublatissimus (d’ Orbigny, 1852) also resembles to D. kathiawarae in overall shell shape and shape of the winged flank. However, the transition from the subsutural shelf to the flank of the body whorl is marked by a prominent, symmetrically bulging shoulder in D. kathiawarae. The shoulder is not so prominent and well-rounded in case of D. sublatissimus. The most prominent feature for distinguishing D. kathiawarae from other species of the genus is it’s almost flat to slightly depressed spire. The other members of the genus have comparatively elevated spires."
