Diagnosis
| Reference | Diagnosis | |
|---|---|---|
| C. A. White 1885 | Shell small; spire comparatively short; volutions four or five in num ber; each volution bearing four or five prominent longitudinal folds, which are usually so arranged upon the spire as to form continuous ridges along its whole length. These long ridges, together with the flattening of the sides of the volutions between them, give a distinctly angular aspect to the shell. Volutions marked by numerous revolving crenulated or tuberculated coarse lines or slender ridges, and the an terior side of the last one is marked in a similar manner; suture not readily distinguishable from the interspaces between the revolving ridges of the spire; aperture, when occurring between the longitudinal folds, comparatively small; beak short; canal narrow. |
