Very shallow and large anal sulcus. Spire high, consisting of a protoconch of undetermined nature and 6 angulate postnuclear whorls. Suture impressed and obscured by varical buttresses. Body whorl broad, bearing 4 strong varices and two strong costae, which represent the remains of the single ventral and dorsal varices of the first whorls. One single shallow cord representing the only spiral sculpture on penultimate and last whorl; other whorls smooth. Siphonal canal moderately long for the genus, open, bent to the right and recurved dorsally at the tip. Most of the intritacalx removed but traces of it showing a cancellate sculpture.

Related only to the American species, such as Aspella senex Dall, 1903; Aspella castor Radwin & D'Attilio, 1976 and Aspella pollux Radwin & D'Attilio, 1976, this shell may be compared with A. platylaevis Radwin & D'Attilio, 1976 from which it differs by its more angulate varices, by its larger and more angulate form and by its siphonal canal. From Aspella producta (Pease, 1861) it differs also by its more angulate varices, by its longer and straighter siphonal canal, by its more triangular form, its finer dorsal costa and its smaller size.

Type locality: Madagascar, Tulear,Grand Recif,outer reef slope. Also found in the Philippines.
