The whorl section is initially rounded, but becomeslaterally compressed as size increases. Ornamentation is best shown by theholotype. At the smallest diameter, 6,1 mm, ornament consists of single, simpleribs, slightly prorsiradiate and separated by interspaces of similar width. At thisstage there are approximately six ribs in a distance equal to the whorl a slightly larger diameter the ribs become increasingly differentiated over theventer. Initially this appears as a mere flattening along the siphonal line, but atla
