The thick, imperforate or very narrowly perforate shell has a conic-elongated shape.
The 9 whorls are convex, spirally lirate (the lirae unequal) and longitudinally nodose-costate, the nodules more prominent below.
The angulated body whorl is depressed beneath the sutures and nodulous at the periphery.
The columella is subangular, concave, strongly truncate at base, with a short callus over the umbilicus.
