Description Adult specimens of Drymaeus inconspicuus can measure up to 25 mm shell height. The species is characterized by the corneous-brown upper whorls and the suture, which is bordered by a white line, descending slightly in front.
Fritz Haas, in 1949, compared this species to Bulimulus transparens (Reeve, 1849), stating that his material was slightly smaller (17 vs. 19 mm shell height). The type material of Bulimulus transparens is located in the Natural History Museum (BMNH 1975397) and is labelled ‘Venezuela’ (Breure, 1978: 147).Breure A. S. H. (1978). "Notes on and descriptions of Bulimulidae (Mollusca, Gastropoda)". Zoologische Verhandelingen Leiden 164: 1-255. If this locality is correct, a close relationship as suggested by Haas seems improbable.
