The length of the shell attains 9 mm, its diameter 4 mm. The small, whitish shell has a broadened fusiform shape. It contains 7
whorls, of which two vitreous and globular whorls in the
protoconch. The shell shows a conspicuous central acute angle in the lower whorls. The whorls are longitudinally crossed by thickish oblique ribs (8 on the body whorl) and intersected by few spiral lirae. The narrow
aperture is oblong. The outer
lip is invrassate. The
columellar margin is straight at its base. The sinus is very obscure. The
siphonal canal is hardly produced. ==Distribution==
