[3] (Original description) The high, narrow shell has a biconically fusiform shape and is scalar and carinated with spiral threads.

Additionally, the entire surface is covered with irregular and unequal threads, which are feeblest on the sloping shoulder below the suture.

The shell is a translucent white beneath a thin, pale, greyish-yellow epidermis that adheres closely but is prone to wear away.

The spire is high, narrow, conical, and slopingly scalar due to the drooping shoulder between the suture and the keel.

The apex is more or less eroded in all four specimens and consists of no more than 11⁄4 embryonic whorls, which are globose, smooth, and with the point slightly obliquely pressed down.

The outer lip is thin, sharp, and patulous, leaving the body at a right angle and advancing quite straight to the keel.

Above the keel lies a deep, thin-lipped, U-shaped sinus, with its lower margin parallel to, but slightly above, the carinal thread.
