Diagnostic characters. Biconical-fusiform shell; obliquely oval aperture; wide and twisted siphonal canal; moderately deep U-shaped anal sinus; sharp spiral keels, the most prominent bordering the subsutural shelf; thin, sinuous collabral riblets in the interspaces between spirals. Protoconch: conical; 5.5 whorls; diameter about 810 µm (protoconch I: 270 µm); height about 1250 µm; first 2 whorls (protoconch I) densely granulated; subsequent whorls (protoconch II) with opisthocyrt collabral riblets, fine spiral threads and sparse granules; transition to the teleoconch marked by a deeply sinuated lip.

Remarks. Drilliola comatotropis ( Dall, 1881) is currently regarded as a junior synonym ( Bouchet & Warén 1980; CLEMAM 2016).

Occurrence. Box-corer sample BC05 (2 specimens); cores BC05 (5), BC51 (2), BC67 (1). Maximum height: 2.5 mm.

Distribution and habitat. The species is distributed on both sides of the Atlantic, from Georgia to Brazil and from the Bay of Biscay to West Africa, the Azores and the Mediterranean; it dwells on bathyal soft bottoms, being apparently shallower at some Mediterranean locations ( Di Geronimo & Panetta 1973; Bouchet & Warén 1980; Pons-Moyà & Pons 1999; Di Geronimo et al. 2001).

Fossil record. Type-locality of the species: Pliocene or Pleistocene of Sicily ( Calcara 1841); Pleistocene of Sardinia ( Di Geronimo & Bellagamba 1985).
