[2] This marine species occurs in the Atlantic Ocean off New Jersey and North Carolina, USA.
The apical whorl is small, spiral, obliquely upturned and incurved, but not prominent.
The sharp lip is continuous all around, raised up and with the edge slightly everted in the umbilical region, so as to partially conceal the umbilicus, which is rather large and deep, nearly circular within.
The thin operculum is horny, pale yellow, round-ovate, spiral, with two to three rapidly enlarging whorls, the nucleus excentric.
It has two short, flat, obtuse, anterior tentacles, wide apart, but connected together by a transverse fold.
