: Shell discoidal, white, with reddish-brown flammulations on the apical surface, often faintly visible peripherally on the shell base through the subpellucid shell wall. Shell thin, opaque to subpellucid; periostracum adherent, matt. Apex and spire flat to moderately raised; later whorls descending more rapidly. Apical suture adpressed at apex, progressively deepening in subsequent whorls; umbilical suture impressed. Whorls strongly keeled peripherally, slightly to moderately concave in the vicinity of the keel, convex towards the shell axis. Transition between protoconch and teleoconch indistinct. Protoconch ornamented by fine spiral and axial lirae, forming a reticulated pattern. Spiral lirae persisting on the teleoconch. Axial lirae gradually transitioning into broader, very low ribs, with interspaces two to four times their width, comprising the primary axial sculpture of the teleoconch; secondary sculpture of the teleoconch formed by very fine, crowded axial riblets, with interspaces approximately equal to their width, overlaying the primary sculpture, and forming tiny nodules at intersections with spiral lirae. Umbilicus wide, shallow to moderately deep. Peristome elongated crescent, with rostrate periphery. Palatal wall with five shallowly recessed barriers, extending approximately one-eighth whorl, with gradual anterior and abrupt posterior descension; barriers one to four basal in position, regularly spaced, either similar in prominence or with the first barrier slightly lower than the remainder; barrier five supraperipheral, usually similar in prominence to the basal barriers, seldom trace-like. Parietal barriers three in number, regularly spaced, not recessed within aperture, with gradual anterior and abrupt posterior descension, extending approximately one-quarter whorl, decreasing in prominence slightly to markedly from the first to the third barrier. Other shell features that can be expressed numerically are shown in
