The shape of the shell is ovate, with a rather elevated apex, and 4 strong folds on the columella. The surface is smooth; the colour greyish white, with numerous spiral rows of dark spots; and the size is 11,5 X 6,5 mm. Characteristics. Near M. lineata, but much smaller. I found several specimens, all about the same size, and evidently fully grown.
