Auriculella flavida is a species of tropical air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks.
Description
The length of the shell attains 6.2 mm, its diameter 3.1 mm.The shell is minutely perforate and can be either dextral or sinistral. It is ovately conic in shape and possesses a naphthalene-yellow hue. The structure is very thin, slightly diaphanous, and glossy; when viewed under a lens, the surface appears minutely striate with growth lines and is marked by extremely fine revolving striae. The spire is conic, ending in an obtuse apex. The suture is simple and hardly impressed. There are 6 1/2 whorls, which are slightly convex; the embryonic whorls are rather large and rounded, while the body whorl is rotund and saccate, though it tapers slightly below. The aperture is broadly oval and is scarcely oblique. Inside the aperture, the parietal lamella is white and very small. The columella is nearly straight. The lip is very slightly thickened, featuring an arcuate outer margin and a reflexed columellar margin. Finally, the parietal callus is thin, and the moderate umbilicus is rimate.
