The shell is cream-colored, with the tint of a blush rose.

The body whorl is angulated, inferior face convex, concentrically cingulate.

Its margin is very densely transversely striate and with oblique sulci, elegantly granulate-nodose.

Young specimens have a deep umbilicus which is inclosed within a sharp ridge.

This species occurs in the Atlantic Ocean off Cape Verde Islands, the Canary Islands, Namibia and off Morocco; in the Mediterranean Sea off Algeria.
