The whorls are rounded and flattened above, adorned in the middle with a bituberculate band (two knob-like projections), and below with nodulose bands (covered with small nodes ). The aperture is round. The inner lip is tinged with purple, and the outer lip is smooth on the inside. The umbilicus is deep and partly covered by a columellar callus.
