(Original description in Latin) The shell is oblong-fusiform, tapering gracefully at the apex, and exhibits a highly glossy surface in shades of pale straw-yellow to ochreous.

It comprises seven to eight whorls, the first three being apical, translucent, and glass-like, while the remaining are subtly grooved transversely just below the sutures, with the interspaces adorned by a chestnut hue.

The body whorl is minimally expanded, displaying a cinnamon-chestnut ochreous tone at its midsection, delicately lined when viewed under magnification, and accented near the base by a pale chestnut band.

The aperture is ovate-oblong, whitish on the interior, with an outer lip that is only slightly flared.

[2] This marine species occurs off the Angria Bank, India and off Sri Lanka.
