“Shell white, slightly translucent. Top whorls moderately oblique, moderately elevated; body whorls forming moderately obliquely cylindrical body, convex, well rounded, with the suture well impressed. constriction rather distinct, gradual. Tuba consisting of approximately 1/2 whorl (rarely somewhat less), touching the body whorls over its entire length, approximately circular in section. Shell with narrow, sometimes rather inconspicuous radial ribs, which are moderately to sidely spaced near the top, rather densely placed to moderately spaced and rather low on the upper body whorl (30-46 ribs present on this whorl). Ribs crossed by fine spiral striation. umbilicus open, deep, narrow. Apertural teeth absent; inner peristome moderately thickened, moderately reflected; outer peristome moderately flaring on the palatal side. Constriction inside with three teeth: one longitudinal, short, lamella-like palatalis which does not or hardly project into the tuba: one distinct, oblique, short, rather high infra columellaris; one often inconspicuous, transverse, rather long, palatalis (almost missing in some specimens).
