Description
editThe length of the shell attains 8 mm.
(Original description in Latin) The shell is small, thin, and oval in shape, with a greenish horn-like color and a somewhat unpolished surface. It has about four and a half whorls, the last of which is swollen or rounded. The aperture is roundly oval, and the columella is simple, being covered posteriorly with a broad callus.[2]
Distribution
editParasites
editIn Korea, Orientogalba ollula serves as a first and main intermediate host for the trematode species Echinostoma cinetorchis from the family Echinostomatidae.[4]
Orientogalba ollula also serves as first intermediate host for the fluke Neodiplostomum seoulense in Korea.[5]
