DIAGNOSIS. — Shell conical with flat sides.
Syntypes
5.3 and
5.2 mm
high. Teleoconch of 10.5-11 whorls. Three spiral cords present, the second appearing on the sixth whorl. First and second cords with tubercles at the intersection with rather orthocline ribs. Second cord initially as a fine thread, but later developing thin tubercles. Tubercles broader at the peristome. Peristome with a faint additional spiral cord below the second. Posterior sinus barely visible in the
syntypes
, whose peristome probably not fully developed. Base with three additional spiral cords of which the first developing flat tubercles, the other two smooth. Multispiral protoconch of 4.5 whorls with one strong spiral keel and axial riblets. The nucleus bears hemispherical granules on the lower half. Protoconch and teleoconch light brown.
