[1] (Original description by Hedley & May) The height of the shell attains 7 mm.

Sculpture : prominent spiral keels, three to the penultimate, ten to the body whorl, successively diminishing from the suture to the base.

They are undercut below the narrow summit, parted by much broader flat interstices.

These keels, apparently folds in the shell substance, are microscopically beaded by fine radial striae, represented in the interstices as hair lines.

The outer lip is unfinished, the ends of the ribs projecting beyond the interstices like claws.
