Two channels on upper whorls and four on the body whorl are crossed by axial ribs, giving the shell a beaded appearance. A distinct rib is present on the body whorl of adult shells. Outer lip flared in adults, columella smooth, and the siphonal canal is short. Shell is yellowish, channels darker, and whitish near the outer edge of aperture. Operculum is light brown and horny.
