Shell small, turriculate, with tall, slender spire, apical angle about 33°. Protoconch not preserved. Teleoconch of nine weakly convex whorls, initially slightly cyrtoconoid in profile, separated by a narrow, moderately impressed, undulating suture. Sculpture of broad rounded, slightly opisthocline to orthocline ribs, about seven on penultimate whorl, extending between suture and weakly crenulating abapical suture. Last two whorls with one or two varices per whorl. Spiral sculpture weak, on early whorls three broad flattened cords separated by narrow grooves. Spiral sculpture weakens on fourth whorl, subobsolete on last three whorls. Axial sculpture predominant, without tubercles produced at intersections. Last whorl convex, moderately constricted at base, bearing a spiral cord at the level of the insertion of the outer lip, a peribasal cord of similar strength, and three weaker basal cords. Aperture ovate, features obscured by matrix.

but differs in having a wider apical angle (33° vs. 23°) and fewer axial ribs (7 vs. 12). The character of the spiral sculpture seems to be similar, slightly stronger on early whorls and both species have two spiral cords delimiting the base. However, comparison is hampered by the form of preservation: the specimen of
