Greatest diameter, 12.5 mm.; height, 7 mm.; width of aperture, 3.3 mm.; height, 4.0 mm. Nucleus rounded, unornamented; later whorls angular at upper shoulder, slightly nodose at aperture. Upper portion of body whorl flattened from suture to shoulder; lateral slope almost vertical, concave band present just below angulation of shoulder, whorl expanding laterally below; under surface of whorl evenly rounded. Umbilicus broad, probably steep-walled and deep, partially filled in holotype.
