Shell small (<2 mm), with a relatively high spire, strong, bicarinate and narrowly umbilicate.
The protoconch measures about 340 µm, has 2 whorls and 2 distinct phases; the first phase is completely smooth but
the second, seemingly smooth, has thin growth lines near the suture. The teleo-conch has just over 1,5 whorls and two carinae which angle the shell, one peripheral and the other basal.
The ornamentation is composed of spiral nodulose cords, ribs and axial folds; cells of different shape occur in the spaces between the cords. On the adapical part, the spiral cords are developed in zigzag; three thick cords may be observed at the beginning of the teleoconch, which subsequently and by the effect of the axial ribs become nodulose and reach 12-14 in number on the last half whorl between the peripheral carina and the suture; since the nodules are high, the cells that occupy the spaces between cords also are so. In the space
between the carinae the axial ribs predominate over the spiral cords forming rounded cells in the interspaces.
On the last half whorl, the cords become finer and more numerous, the axial ribs are transformed into thick axial folds of triangular aspect which extend from the peripheral to the basal carina and the cells disappear. The base is very convex and bears spiral cordlets together with axial ribs and cells in the interspaces; in the last 1/2 whorl there are axial folds. Umbilicus narrow and deep, limited by a thick cord which occludes it progressively by the thickening of the base of the columella. Aperture triangular, prosocline; parietal area with a thick callous coating; columella arched, thick and reflected towards the umbilicus, with a thickening at the base which forms the peri-umbilical cord; outer lip margin modified only by the angle corresponding to the basal carina, which prolongs it laterally. Dimensions: the holotype is 1.5 mm in diameter.

The species is characterized by its high spire; the lower number of cords at the beginning of the teleoconch; the elevated nodules of the cords as well as the deep cells of the spaces between cords; the large axial folds of triangular aspect and the umbilicus closed by the cord generated by the thickening of the columella.
