Shell small, solid, depressed conical. Spire low, less than height of aperture, sides stepped. Whorls biangled, one angle at periphery and the other above the middle. Protoconch smooth, low, first whorl rounded, but the second showing a faint indication of the upper angle, which becomes a prominent feature of the post-nuclear whorls. The postnuclear sculpture consists of a few strong spiral ridges. On the spire there are three primary ridges and a fourth at the periphery; between these primary ribs there is in each interspace a spiral thread, but these are weak, with the exception of a moderately strong one between the third and the peripheral ridges. On the base there are four broad and strong evenly developed spiral ridges with interspaces of less than half their own width. There is no umbilicus, but in its place a calloused area with an arcuate shallow groove, which runs parallel to the thickened pillar. Colour pale buff, intercostal spaces light brown, interior iridescent.
Height 3,7 mm.; diameter 4,5 mm. (Holotype).

Habitat: Off Three Kings Islands, St. 933, 260 m.
