The length of the shell attains 4.7 mm. Eulimella cylindrata is a cylindrical shell with a pointed vertex, basically measuring less than 5 mm in length. The shell is smooth and shiny, and usually translucent or transparent in appearance. It has a small aperture (opening) on one end, through which the animal extends its foot and tentacles. The vertex is pointed, and the hole is oval-shaped, usually occupying only a small portion of the shell's length. The shell coloration can fluctuate from light brown to pale yellow or even transparent, and some individuals may have a darker brown band around the base of the shell.
