Shell delicate, white, of 5 whorls, including a rather 
blunt scarcely mamillate protoconch of 2 convex whorls, with 
7 spiral lire, ending abruptly at the first axial rib. Spire- 
whorls gradate, subconcavely sloping below the suture, with 
a sharp lira at the edge of the gradation ; whorls contracting 
towards the lower suture; body-whorl contracted at the base ; 
canal very short; aperture oblong-oval, outer lip thin, with 
ten lire outside, which with the lip in profile project as minute 
spurs; sinus well marked from the suture to the angle; inner 
lip a narrow, opaque-white glaze: columella long, straightly 
convex. Sculpture bold, five spirals in the first and second 
whorls, including that at the angle, fourteen on the body- 
whorl, narrow, erect; axials, twenty in the penultimate, coro- 
nating the uppermost spiral with projecting points, and pro- 
ducing tiny tubercles as they cross the other spirals. Crowded 
axial threads, concave forwards, run from the simple suture 
to the angle.
