Diagnosis.

Shell medium, light corneous. All whorls smooth. Neck weakly inflexed, densely and finely striate-costate. Basal and peripheral crests weak. Peristome rounded to somewhat angular, with strongly swollen, reflexed margin. Lamellae superior and spiralis do not overlap. In front view lamella inferior moderately emerged, subcolumellaris mostly not visible. Lunella dorsolateral to lateral. Basalis mostly separate from the lunella. Subclaustralis short, sulcalis very close and often connected to the lamella subcolumellaris. Anterior plica superior close and parallel to the principalis, fused to the lunella complex. Clausilium plate not visible through the aperture.
