Diagnosis. Diplommatina sulcicollis is characterized by a closely ribbed, sinistral shell with a spiral depression on the last whorl and a fine spiral palatal fold close to the suture ventrolaterally right inside the last whorl.
Shell (Fig. 20; Table 1). Sinistral; ovoid with conical early whorls and a narrowed last whorl; with 5–5.25 whorls separated by a deep suture; protoconch smooth; teleoconch with fine oblique ribs (88–113 on the penultimate whorl; fewer on the last whorl); without discernible spiral striae between the ribs; corneous; subtranslucent; last whorl with a spiral depression and with a ventral constriction; aperture rounded, angular at the transition from columellar to basal side; upper insertion of the peristome distinctly ascending towards aperture; insertions of the peristome connected by a distinct callus; peristome expanded, thickened, doubled; aperture with a prominent columellar lamella; with a parietal lamella ventrolaterally right inside the last whorl; with a fine spiral palatal fold close to the suture ventrolaterally right inside the last whorl, and with a radial palatal fold ventrally; umbilicus closed; operculum thin, corneous, circular, paucispiral. Shell height 2.5–2.85 mm, shell diameter 1.5– 1.65 mm.
Habitat. In leaf litter in forests on volcanic soils at 1500–3000 m a.s.l.

Distribution (Fig. 13). Diplommatina sulcicollis is endemic to Java and has mainly been found in the Mt. Gede-Mt. Pangrango range in West Java. However, there is also one record from Mt. Lawu in East Java (Rensch 1934) for which no vouchers could be traced.
