Shell of moderate size (2.8 mm), thin, white, elliptically conical, high (SH/SL = 0.41). Apex posterior of center (P/SL = 0.64). Protoconch barely below apex, broken, sculpture unknown. Teleoconch sculpture of raised concentric bands that become irregular, then interrupted into beads or pustules that align to form regularly curved rows. Radial sculpture of very fine, irregular, threads and beads that abut but do not cross concentric bands. Anterior slope weakly convex to straight, posterior slope straight. Aperture planar, broadly elliptical. Shell edge thin, sharp. Periostracum thin.

The single specimen from Colombia, although worn, is readily identified on the basis of its conical shell shape, nearly apical protoconch, and characteristic teleoconch sculpture.
