The clathrations are beautifully regular, and in a young specimen the point of junction between the longitudinal and spiral lirae is gemmuled with shining small papillae. The shell contains seven or eight whorls. The aperture is acute. The outer lip is thickened. The crenulated sinus is wide, but not cut deeply. The columella is nearly straight. [2]
