Shell turreted-oval, of 7 whorls, including the blunt protoconch of 2 smooth convex whorls, with a subimpressed suture, ending abruptly. Spire-whorls convex, angulated in the first and second below the middle, and at the middle in the fourth ; with a subsutural threadlet in the first which enlarges progressively to a stout round spiral; in the second another appears midway between the angulation and the lower suture; and in the fourth another below this; in the fifth or body-whorl two fine spirals appear above the angulation, and there are thirteen below it, becoming fainter and lower anteriorly; they are much narrower than the interspaces; the spiral just below the suture, and that at the angulation are the most valid, and are well nodulated, the nodules being somewhat pliciform, directed downwards and backwards on the former, and downwards and forwards on the latter; the next two spirals are nodulated, but less so, also downwards and forwards. Axial lirae, starting from the suture, are directed downwards and backwards to the nodules on the first spiral, are then concave forwards between these and the nodules on the angulation, and then run obliquely convexly forward to the nodules on the next two spirals ; on these, by intercalated lirae, the nodules are doubled in number, but are almost im¬perceptible on the spirals beyond. Body-whorl is rhomboidal, concavely contracted at the base. Aperture squarely oval, opening into a short, wide canal. Labrum thin, angulated at the upper fourth, slightly crinkled by the spirals, pinched in front to form the canal; in profile it has a deep trigonal sinus between the suture and the angle, is then convex, and has a shallow excavation where the aperture is pinched. Inner lip is a narrow glazed depression ; columella straight. Colour white. Length 8.8 mm ; of body-whorl, 5 mm ; breadth, 3.5 mm.
