Notes  Biology: Type of larval development: planktotrophic, inferred from multispiral protoconch. [details]

Diagnosis: Shell up to 15 mm high with rather high spire and rounded body whorl. Protoconch small, distinctly cyrtoconoid with 2.5 smooth whorls. Teleoconch of 6-7 comvex whorls, with a sculpture of regular spiral cords, broader thn interspaces, and of axial folds which become distinctly flexuous on the body whorl. Aperture bordered externally with a strong varix forming a rim, normally unique - not repeated at earlier growth stages on the spire. Inner side of outer lip bearing ca. 10 denticles, elongated in the spiral direction. Parietal edge of aperture forming a very thin, appressed callus, with a distinct adapical denticle, continued into a thicker columellar callus with a slightly raised edge. Base of body whorl with a groove delimiting the outer part of the siphonal canal.
Colour extremely variable, with distinct combinations of brown, black, yellowish or orange hues, most often with a paler band on abapical part of spire whorls and periphery of body whorls, else arranged in bands or in spiral series of blotches, or uniform. Aperture white with a highly diagnostic black blotch inside the siphonal canal.
 [details]

Distribution: Eastern Atlantic, from Norway to southern Morocco, also in Canary Is. and the Azores, and throughout the Mediterranean, from shore to ca. 100 m. Gorringe, Ampère and Seine seamounts, uncommon in ca. 200 m. [details]

Habitat: Known from seamounts and knolls [details]
