Volvarina parvistriata

The sculpture consists of minute, close, and straight axial striae, continuous over the spire to the body whorl.

The spire is short, conoidal and with a blunt apex, its height about one- fifth that of the aperture.

The aperture is high and narrow, a little wider below, subchannelled above and roundly truncated at the base.

The outer lip is slightly convex, vertical, a little retrocurrent toward the suture, thickened and rounded.

It is smooth inside, with an outer varix extending a short way up the spire and across the basal margin.
