Shell solid, globular, sculpture of strong spiral cords fading out on last whorl. Aperture large, inner lip with 1 to 3 white tooth-like projections, with blood red blotch, outer lip finely crenulated. Colour: shell colour yellowish mottled with red and black.

Life cycle and mating behavior
Könsmognad | Reproduktion | Lek | Eggs | Fecundity | Larvae
Members of the order Neritopsina are mostly gonochoric and broadcast spawners. Life cycle: Embryos develop into planktonic trocophore larvae and later into juvenile veligers before becoming fully grown adults.
