The length of the shell is 5 mm, its diameter 2.2 mm. (Original description) The cylindrical shell has a fusiform shape. It contains 4
whorls, rounded, somewhat tumid. The
protoconch is obtuse; on the primary whorl there are 3 faint spiral striations visible. The suture s shallow. The
aperture is not very open and measures about half the length of the shell The
siphonal canal is straight, short and wide, and at the extremity truncately transected. The
sculpture consists of nearly straight axial ribs (10 on the ultimate whorl) which are, on the upper part of the whorl, alone, distinctly visible, and of pretty faint, but somewhat close-set, spiral striations. The outer
lip, which is somewhat broken, appears to bear a distinct trace of a sinus. ==Distribution==
