The very small shell is ovate, oblong, and attenuated at its extremities. It is of an orange yellow color. The pointed spire is composed of seven subconvex whorls, bearing upon their whole surface numerous longitudinal folds, intersected by fine transverse and approximate striae. The striae of the body whorl are a little more distinct towards the base. The sutures are ornamented, near the edge, with a row of small granulations, separated by a transverse furrow.
