The length of the shell attains 7 mm, its diameter 3 mm. (Original description) The small shell is whitish polished, with (on the
body whorl six or seven) widely spaced narrow brown spiral lines. It contains six
whorls without the (lost)
protoconch. The suture is distinct. The axial

The spiral sculpture consists of incised lines in the interspaces between the ribs. The brown color is situated in these grooves of which there are six or more on the body whorl, rather widely spaced;. The
aperture is simple. The
anal sulcus is inconspicuous. The
