This species is similar to H. bubalus sp. nov. with which it is also geographically approximate. It differs from it by a clearly narrower umbilicus. Hypselostoma bubalus sp. nov. is also spirally striated on some isolated parts of the shell (above or below the keel), but H. luctans is not. See also under H. piconis. Distribution.
