Geiger (2003) treated the species from Ambon as an unidentified nomen dubium and it remains such. The umbilicate shell with sunken in protoconch suggests the family Planorbidae . At 1.25 inches> 3 cm it would be rather large. The color pattern could not be matched up with any old world tropical planorbids.
