The spire contains with five or more moderately rounded whorls. The nucleus is eroded. The distinct suture is not appressed. The axial sculpture shows numerous somewhat irregular narrow close-set wrinkles, extending over the whorl from the suture to the verge of the funicular umbilicus. The spiral sculpture shows a few spiral lines near the umbilicus. The subcircular aperture is oblique and produced above. The lips are joined over the body by a layer of enamel. The dark-brown operculum is multispiral, with 8 or 10 turns.^[3]
