In well preserved, keeled specimens narrow, distinct keel develops early in ontogeny. In first whorl it aligns with suture, but as shell growth becomes slightly more abapically oriented, keel emerges more clearly and separates whorl top and whorl flank. Expression and extent of keel varies, it may appear and disappear within 0.2 whorls or range until last whorl; however, no specimen is found with keel covering entire shell. Strength of keel very variable, ranging from robust and well delimited to almost obsolete. In much of the material the keel is worn. Aperture broadly semicircular with broad, smooth callus that is weakly thickened especially in its center (see lateral views). Coloration variable, including fully black, white with dark stripes, irregular mix of dark and white, white blotches arranged in spiral bands or entirely white.</paragraph>
