The increase in diameter of the shell is very slight and there is no conspicuous swelling; the greatest diameter is located near the anterior aperture. Apical shell aperture nearly circular, cut by four deep notches, forming four triangular lobes: lobe on convex side slightly longer, lobe on concave side truncated, and two lateral lobes. The external surface, appearing smooth under optical microscope, is papillated at higher magnifications. Anterior aperture subcircular, slightly depressed and oblique.</paragraph>
