The length of the shell attains 5 mm, its diameter 3 mm. (Original description) The broadly fusiform shell has a tall, blunt-topped
spire. It contains four, moderately rounded
whorls. The spire and the
aperture are of about equal length. The aperture is small. The
columella is concave, bearing four strong teeth, which extend about two-thirds up the columella, and extend well out on to the base of the shell. The outer
lip is very massively thickened, much rounded, with a strong tubercle within, placed near the upper third. ==Distribution==
