Description
A medium-sized, conical seashell with a moderately elevated, stepped spire. The shell's surface is predominantly off-white to pale cream, adorned with irregular, broad bands and blotches of pale yellowish-brown or light tan. Fine growth lines are visible across the shell, particularly on the spire and towards the base. The body whorl is smooth and tapers towards the base, and the aperture is long and narrow.
