Description
The solid shell has a depressed-conical shape. It is sharply striate and spirally . The umbilicus is partly filled by a prominent spiral funicle within that terminates at the columella. The sinuous columella terminates in a point or denticle at its base. The outer lip is lirate within.[2]
