The holotype has lost the early whorls and the base.The early whorls are well rounded, while the later ones are flattened. They are separated by a decidedly channeled suture, are narrowly shouldered at the summit, and are decidedly angulated at the periphery. They are marked only by feeble axial lines of growth. The summit of succeeding whorls falls a little anteriorly to the angulated periphery and forms a channeled suture. The aperture of this type specimen is fractured.
