(Original description in Latin) The shell is ovate and somewhat depressed. Its spire is small, scarcely elevated, and narrowly and deeply umbilicate. It has 2½ convex whorls, which are neatly decussated (crossed) with elevated radial and concentric striae. The aperture is oblique and sub-orbicular. [2]
