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

Diagnosis Shell up to 30 mm high, elongate fusiform, quite solid. Protoconch of little more than three whorls, distinctly cyrtoconoid, with the two first whorls smooth except for a suprasutural thread, the last one bearing curved, widely spaced axial riblets. Teleoconch of 6-7 whorls. Spire whorls moderately convex, with ca.10 strong, very slightly prosocline axial folds overrun by spiral cords; three major spiral cords throughout teleoconch whorls, forming elongate knobs at intersection with axial folds; smaller cords added from penultimate whorl onwards. Body whorl with rounded periphery and a straight, tapering siphonal canal, also covered with spiral cords. Aperture oval, merging abapically into the quite open siphonal canal. Parietal edge bearing anteriorly a very weak knob, very close to the attachment of the outer lip. Columellar edge smooth, appressed. Outer lip with a thin edge, inside of the aperture with very faint spiral grooves in the deeper visible part. Colour of protoconch very pale brown; teleoconch whitish.
This species resembles Fusinus meteoris Gofas, 2000 which has basically the same pattern of straight and slightly prosocline axial folds, but is distinguished from it by its smaller size, more compact outline and multispiral protoconch. [details]

Distribution Eastern Atlantic, from Bay of Biscay to West Africa; Gorringe, Josephine, Ampère, Seine, Great Meteor, Hyères, Irving, Cruiser, Plato and Atlantis seamounts, and the Azores, moderately common in 200-1000 m.  [details]

Type locality (from lectotype designated by Bouchet & Warén, 1985) Off the western Iberian Peninsula (43°01'N - 09°37'W, 2018 m or 41°43'N - 09°19'W, 1068 m), cannot be determined with more precision due to mixed labels in collection. [details]
