, H/D ratio ±0.53; spire slightly raised; suture indented and apical portion of whorls strongly convex, whorls thus weakly shouldered; periphery more or less at mid-whorl, evenly rounded; last adult whorl slightly descendant. Protoconch comprising apical cap plus approx. 0.75 whorl; diameter ±310 μm; microscopically shagreened or malleate. Teleoconch of up to 2.75 whorls; surface texture silky; sculpture of simple, close-set, microscopic axial riblets; riblets alternating in strength and with even finer spiral threads in their intervals. Umbilicus relatively narrow. Aperture obliquely lunate; parietal region with a well-developed, crescentic, in-running lamella situated well below mid-whorl, extending just beyond edge of aperture, its interior end with a distinct downward deflection; baso-columellar region with a strong denticle (shape somewhat variable); palatal region with a strong, deeply recessed, ridge-like denticle just above mid-whorl, its crest thickened, plus a broad, thickened pad below mid-whorl, opposite and below parietal lamella. Shell corneous-brown to yellowish-brown when fresh.
