A wing-shaped projection at the shell's columellar margin is not pronounced or absent. The shell's colour pattern is generally variable and includes patterns such as zig-zag stripes, spiral lines, spiral bands and transverse lines in different shades of brown. The peripheral band of the shell has usually a dark brown colour.[1]
