This marine species occurs in the Indian Ocean and off Sri Lanka.

(Original description) The shell has an ovate fusiform shape. The upper whorls are in flesh colour. The last two are white. A pale brown band appears at the base of the body whorl.

The shell contains 5 - 6 whorls, sculptured with spiral striae and coarse, somewhat distant transverse ribs which project above the suture. The suture is impressed.
