The length of the shell varies between 2.5 mm and 5 mm. The imperforate shell is solid, opaque and whitish. It is cancellated and almost muricated by subequal longitudinal and spiral distant lirae. The shell contains seven
whorls, angularly shouldered above and with a deep suture. The longitudinal
sculpture is evanescent on the lower part of the
body whorl, where the spiral sculpture becomes more prominent. The outer
lip is thickened. ==Distribution==
