The shell is creamy yellow overlaid with many crimson axial flammules above and below the selenizone which has yellowish orange crescent shaped growth marks, the base is a pale creamy yellow with occasional light crimson flammules, and the interior of the aperture is nacreous.

The shell is heavily textured with about 20 to 22 coarse spiral cords crossed by numerous heavy axial growth lines to produce rows of prominent beads over the entire surface above the selenizone ( the area where the shell growth filled in the slit ) and about 7 to 8 rows of prominent beads below.

The Anomphalidae differ from the Euomphalcea to which they have been reassigned in being more trochoidal, in lacking the angulation on the upper whorl surface characteristic of Euomphalacea, and in having the inner shell layer seemingly nacreous . ( The inner shell layers of the Euomphalacea may be of laminar arragonite, but are never nacreous . ) The Anomphalidea differ from the Pleurotomariacea in lacking the often deep slit or selenizone, which is characteristic of that taxon.
