SAS-Z191 (Fig. 232) is very much likeM. {A.) moreti, in being more inflated and weaker ornamented than typicalM. (A.) australis, pointing to the close relationship between the two species. M. {A) antsirasiraensis lacks the depressed whorl section and loses theventrolateral spine at diameters between 70 and 80 mm. 312 ANNALS OF THE SOUTH AFRICAN MUSEUM
