Aesopus pallidulus

(Original description) The shell is small and narrow with a fusiform shape, tapering to blunt ends.

Sculpture: The dome-shaped protoconch features fine, closely spaced radial riblets, ending with a slight varix.

The teleoconch begins abruptly with seven evenly spaced spiral ridges and equal furrows, which gradually increase in size and number.

The ridges are square in cross-section, polished, and slightly narrower than the flat furrows, which are radially striated.

[2] This marine species is endemic to Australia and occurs off New South Wales, Tasmania and Victoria.
