Material examined : Type material and 18474 [1] OP II # 60; 18475 [1] OP II # 75; 18476 [2] OP II # 84; 18477 [1] OP II # 86; 18478 [1] OP I # 50A; 18479 [4] OP I # 75. Description : Shell oblong-biconical, white, up to 5.08 mm long. Protoconch with about 3.5 whorls. Protoconch 1 with spiral rows of tiny crosses. Protoconch 2 with diagonal cancellation on the lower 3/4 of the whorls, and axial riblets crossed by very fine and faint spiral threads on the upper fourth. Clear-cut prototeleoconch boundary. Teleoconch with a strong subsutural spiral cord and another strong spiral cord on the upper half of the whorls. Axial sculpture consists of 14–16 axial ribs (on the fourth whorl), forming pointed nodules where they cross the spiral cords. Axial ribs extend over base. Shell surface with granules aligned spirally. Suture well marked. Base short, with nine weak spiral cordlets. Anal sinus not discernible. Outer lip relatively thick. Anterior siphonal canal oblique, very short and wide. Aperture elliptical. Geographic distribution : Northwest Atlantic: Cuba (Dall, 1881; Dall, 1889).
