Identification:  This species has a glossy white, inflated shell. Some shells, however, may have a slenderer profile. There is one fold on the columella. Natural history:  We haven't seen Odostomia cf. chariclea on Maui. Distribution:  Oahu. Taxonomic notes:  This species may also be listed in Kay, 1979 and Severns, 2011 as Odostomia margarita Pilsbry, 1944. Although not completely certain, the shell illustrated as that species may be a slightly more extreme example of the slender form of O. cf. chariclea (see photo).
