The interior of the shell is extensively remodeled including the columellar region; nodules are absent at least on the first few teleoconch whorls; spirals are usually present on the sutural ramps of the teleoconch whorls, shell shape ranges from squatly conical to elongated or biconic. The radular tooth is simple with a barb and short blade; a basal spur is present; serrations and terminating cusps are absent (diagnosis adapted from Tucker & Tenorio 2009).
