Shell small, solid, elongate-conic, white. Whorls five, including a blunt dome-shaped protoconch of two smooth whorls. Spire whorls subangled at the middle, base convex, smooth, imperforate. The sculpture consists of a supra-sutural rounded cord which persists right over the last whorl, and strong regular blunt fold-like axials which do not cross the sutural cord. These axials number fourteen on the penultimate and twelve on the last whorl. Spire about 1 2/3 height of aperture. Aperture obliquely ovate. Peristome continuous, duplicated on the outside by a heavy rounded varix which leaves the thin slightly dilated inner edge of the outer lip as a projecting rim.
Height 2,85 mm.; diameter 1,7 mm. (Holotype).
Habitat: Off Three Kings Islands, St. 933, 260 m.
