Descrição original:

(Pilsbry, 1944): “The very thin shell is narrowly umbilicate, the spire convex, periphery well rouiuled. The 4 1/3 whorls are convex and joined by a deeply impressed suture, the last whorl only ver}’ slightly descending in front. Color very pale brown marked with three narrow dark brown bands which are interrupted into hyphen-shaped spots, the spots of the upper series connected with the suture by short radial brown streaks; the first 1 1/2 whorls whitish.

The surface is dull, the first whorl smooth, next whorl with close microscopic radiating striae. Subsequent whorls have low uneven wrinkles of growth and low papillae arranged in obliquely descending order though not very regular; on the base the papillae become lower. The aperture is wide, lunate, the peristome rather narrowly expanded in its outer and basal margins, dilated near the axial insertion, covering a small part of the umbilicus.”
