The protoconch is conical, consisting of two and a half whorls, about the last one sculptured with axial riblets.
(One species referred to this genus has a stout, cylindrical, smooth nucleus of two whorls.)
The anal notch immediately adjoining the suture, is moderately deep, and broadly rounded.
The interior of the outer lip bears a low broad denticle on the notch.
