Splendrillia eburnea is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Drilliidae. [1]
The length of the shell attains 10 mm, its diameter 4 mm.
(Original description) The solid, glossy, ivory-yellow shell has a cylindro-fusiform shape. The shell contains 7 whorls, including a two-whorled dome-shaped protoconch. The suture is impressed. There are no spirals. The ribs are set about fourteen to a whorl. They start up suddenly, immediately below the contracted fasciole area. They are prominent, perpendicular, wide-spaced, discontinuous, decreasing anteriorly, become obsolete on the body whorl, and vanish below the periphery. The aperture is wide. There is no varix. The outer lip is simple. The sinus is deep, U-shaped, right insertion incrassate. The throat is smooth. The inner lip is overlaid with a thick polished callus. The siphonal canal is short and open.
