The spiral sculpture is stronger than microscopic striations. The axial sculpture consists of faint riblets, with the spiral markings consisting of strong raised threads.<ref>Dall & Bartsch, A Monograph of West American Pyramidellid Mollusks; Smithsonian Institution, bulletin 68, p. 12; 1909</ref>

==Distribution== This species is mainly distributed off the coasts of Japan and various European countries.
