(Original description in Latin) The turreted shell is small and slender, and has a whitish coloration. Often, a band around the periphery is adorned with brownish-orange spots. The nuclear whorls are mammillate, effused, flattened, and slightly constricted towards the end. The ribs are shiny and wax-like. The aperture is evanescent and is sub-square, with a lip that is not thickened and sometimes finely striated inside, not denticulate. The columella is abruptly truncated. [2]
