REMARK

Fernandes & Pimenta (2020) already discussed on the existence of shells possibly belonging to S. intermedia , but with a much lighter adapical spiral cord of teleoconch, which requires further investigation comprising soft parts in order to evaluate whether this is a mere ecophenotypic plasticity or if it represents a different species.
