Deux Miniaceoliva achetées comme episcopatus qui est un synonyme de Miniaceoliva caerula mais avec l' intérieur parme tirant vers le rose ce qui n' est pas évident sur les images! Ce qui est le cas pour la première! Elles seraient originaires des Philippines d' après le vendeur. Sa spire plus basse est ornée d' un tour plat légèrement incliné surmonté d' une crête légèrement dirigée vers l' extérieur. La bande fasciolaire est vierge d' ornementation. Taille: 29 mm.
