The upper edge of each whorl is very slightly compressed, which renders the sutures but little apparent.

The ground color of this shell is whitish, and there are delineated brown undulating or zigzag lines, more or less numerous, which descend from the top to the base of the whorls.

The aperture is rather narrow, attenuated at its lower extremity, and as long as the other whorls united.

The columella is smooth, straight and entirely white like the rest of the interior of the aperture.
