Diagnosis
ReferenceDiagnosis
K. Bandel 1995The small shell has a high spire with numerous flat-sided whorls and distinct sutures. The protoconch is sinistrally coiled and inclined with respect to the axis of the teleoconch. The first (5) whorls of the juvenile teleoconch are covered with axial and spiral costae, of which the spiral ones are dominant. Later whorls are smooth or have indistinct spiral threads up to the edge of the base, while the base is covered by spiral carinae. The umbilicus is narrow and may form the opening to a hollow columella.
