This species is quite variable in coloration, the white appearing either in oblique zigzags or in spots.
|
|
The entire surface is peculiarly sculptured with longitudinal striae. The spire is rather obtusely convex and obsoletely coronated.G.W. Tryon (1884) Manual of Conchology, structural and systematic, with illustrations of the species, vol. VI; Philadelphia, Academy of Natural Sciences It is possible that this is a compound species as there are at least two population groups where the shell morphology is identical but the animal, habitat and behaviour are totally distinct.
|

|
It is smaller than Cantharidus sanguineus (height: 5.5 mm, diameter 4.5 mm) but it is more deeply ribbed and its grooves are wider.Tryon (1889), Manual of Conchology XI, Academy of Natural Sciences, Philadelphia The imperforate shell is more deeply ribbed, and the ribs narrower. They number 5 to 7 on the penultimate whorl, 15 to 16 on the body whorl. Sometimes they are obsoletely granose through being crossed by growth lines.

Lynda Carter covered this song in her 1981 television music special Lynda Carter's Celebration. The song was used in the American Dad! episode "Francine's Flashback", the Futurama episode "Obsoletely Fabulous", the Regular Show episode "First Day", in the pilot episode of Freaks and Geeks, and on the episode "Self Help" of The Walking Dead. The song was released as a downloadable track for Rock Band 3 on November 13, 2012.

The length of the shell attains 16 mm, its diameter 6.5 mm. The apical whorls are minutely punctate and the succeeding whorls are obsoletely longitudinally ribbed and transversely scratched, a couple of transverse ridges being more prominent below the suture, which is slightly canaliculate. The aperture is longer than the spire. This is the most interesting species found by Roy Bell, and, until the animal is examined, its classification must remain obscure.
|
|
The aperture is huge, oblique iridescent. The outer lip is rather thin, not black-margined within; but bordered by a brilliantly iridescent band; The columella is concave, obsoletely subdentate below, very broad and flattened or excavated on the face. It is composed principally of an opaque white layer which also lines the base but does not extend to the edge of the lip. The length of the shell varies between 15 mm and 26 mm.

"Obsoletely Fabulous" is the fourteenth episode in the fourth season of the American animated television series Futurama. It originally aired on the Fox network in the United States on July 27, 2003. Set in a retro-futuristic 31st century, the series follows the adventures of the employees of Planet Express, an interplanetary delivery company. In this episode, Mom's Friendly Robot Company introduces a new model of robot, so older models, including Bender, are required to get a system upgrade.

The outer lip is convex, rather thin and sharp, bordered within by an extremely narrow black margin, followed by a broad opaque white band, sometimes brilliantly iridescent. The columella is concave, obsoletely subdentate below, very broad and flattened or excavated on the face. It is composed principally of an opaque white layer, which also lines the base, but does not extend to the edge of the lip. The parietal wall has a band of nacre, uniting the ends of the peristome.
|
|
Below this is a hardly concave furrow, on the lower side of which the whorls are angulated by the projection of the tubercles. The lower part of the whorls is very obsoletely marked with broad flat spiral threads, which may be traced to the tip of the snout. Colour: pale waxy white, whence the name. The spire is conical, with profile-lines interrupted by the prominence of the keel, from which both above and below is a contraction into the suture.
|
|
The plicae are obsoletely nodulous above at the suture, bearing larger nodules at the angle and two smaller ones beneath it. The nodulesare connected by spiral lirae between the plicae, which are coarser than other intermediate fine spiral lirations. The body whorl is encircled by about fourteen of these transverse lirae, whereof nearly all, with the exception of a few at the base, are more or less granular on the plicae. The aperture measures about two-fifths of the entire length of the shell, light brown.

First described as Agaricus vitilis by Swedish mycologist Elias Magnus Fries in 1838, it was assigned to Mycena vitilis in 1872 by Lucien Quélet. The white-bodied variant Mycena vitilis var. corsica has been described from Italy, and differs from the main species by its white fruit bodies and differing measurements for several microscopic characters. Carleton Rea named another variety amsegetes (meaning "field by the roadside"), which differs from the type variety by its "obsoletely umbonate" cap, its shorter and thicker stem, and its typical habitat of meadows and roadsides.

Despite these human characteristics, he has no verifiable soul, as seen in "Obsoletely Fabulous" when he passes through a "soul detector" without setting off the alarm. However, in "Ghost in the Machines", Bender becomes a ghost who can't interact with people directly but can possess machinery: he uses this ability to "scare Fry to death". He eventually makes a deal with the Robot Devil (Dan Castellaneta) to get a new body. His relationships with the rest of the crew of Planet Express vary over time, although he treats nearly all biological organisms with disdain.
|
|
The upper surface of the body whorl shows a stout and a broad lira next to the suture, which is transversely crenulate-ridged. The periphery is bluntly angled by a slightly compressed convex keel, which is obsoletely crenulated. Between the keel and the sutural band are three granulose lirae about equidistant and equal-sized but the anterior one is close to the keel (in older specimens a small lira is interposed next the suture, and there is a tendency in the granules of the lirae to become somewhat confluent). The intervals between the lirae are smooth.
|
|
The forewings are pale ochreous, irregularly tinged with fuscous and with a cloudy dark fuscous subdorsal dot at one-fourth. The stigmata are blackish, the plical represented by two transversely placed dots enclosed in the fuscous suffusion, the second discal by two transversely placed dots, an additional dot midway between the lower of these and the upper plical. There is an oblique white line from four-fifths of the costa, edged with black on the costa, angulated opposite the terminal concavity and continued obsoletely to near the tornus. There is a white dark-edged line from the costa beyond this running to the apex and some blackish suffusion on the termen towards the middle.
|
|
The forewings are fuscous with fine ochreous-yellow lines beneath the costa from the base to near the middle and on the submedian fold from near the base to beyond the middle. There is a small ochreous-yellow spot in the disc at one- third and an irregular ill-defined ochreous-yellow line from a small spot on the middle of the costa to two-thirds of the dorsum, obsoletely interrupted above and below the middle. Between this and the termen, all veins are marked with extremely fine pale yellowish lines, between which are some shorter pale ochreous-yellowish fine interneural streaks. An ochreous-yellow line is found around the apex and termen, thickened around the apex, edged by a dark fuscous marginal line.
