It is dull grayish, olivaceous or pinkish, longitudinally lineolate with a darker shade, frequently appearing unicolored.

The 6 to 7 whorls are flattened, scarcely convex, very obsoletely spirally grooved.

The body whorl is acutely carinated at the periphery, flat or plano-concave beneath, concentrically lirate.

The columella is sinuous, unidentate in the middle, green, half surrounding the umbilicus with a sickle-shaped callus.
