Etrema polydesma Hedley, 1922
4.55mm

These all seem close to what Tardy & Stahlschmidt (2022) figure as Etrema polydesma. The specimens figured below may not all be the same species, but they do share a similar sculpture and the reddish brown staining on the columella near the anterior end. Empty shells are uncommonly brought up in sand samples from about 61m on the seaward reef.
