The length of the shell attains 3.1 mm, its diameter 1.7 mm. (Original description) The very small shell is oviform, semitransparent. It has a short
spire, axially finely striated. The
sculpture consists of minute, close, and straight axial striae, continuous over the spire to the
body whorl. The colour of the shell is white or yellowish white. The spire is short, conoidal and with a blunt
apex, its height about one- fifth that of the
aperture. The
protoconch is smooth, andbroadly convex. The shell contains three
whorls, flat on the spire. The body whorl is high, moderately convex and slightly narrowed towards the base. The sutnre is indistinct. The aperture is high and narrow, a little wider below, subchannelled above and roundly truncated at the base. The outer
lip is slightly convex, vertical, a little retrocurrent toward the suture, thickened and rounded. It is smooth inside, with an outer
varix extending a short way up the spire and across the basal margin. The
columella is a little oblique and has four oblique, nearly equidistant, strong plaits. The inner lip is broad and thin, distinct only outside the columella. The parietal wall is lightly convex. ==Distribution==
