The shell has a black-and-white banded pattern overlying a light grey to white shell. It is very similar to that of the southern ribbed top snail, Austrocochlea constricta, and until recently the two species were considered to be identical. The aperture is less dilated, than in Austrocochlea constricta. The columellar tubercle is obsolete.[2] DistributionThis marine species is endemic to Australia and occurs off Central Queensland to West Australia and also off Tasmania. References1. ^Bouchet, P.
