Amphicyclotus cinereus is a species of tropical land snails with gills and an operculum, terrestrial gastropod mollusks in the family Neocyclotidae.[1]
The diameter of the shell attains 4.5 mm.
(Original description in Latin) This small, umbilicate, subturbinate shell is thin, faintly translucent, and finely striated, exhibiting an ash-gray coloration. It consists of four convex whorls with an obtuse apex. The aperture is angular-circular, and the peristome is simple and acute. The operculum is immersed, concolorous, and typical.[2]
