The shell is limpet-shaped, with oval outline and posterior apex. The margins are expanded. In profile it is very depressed, highest a little back of the middle, the slope from the apex upward short and concave, from the apex downward gently convex. The surface is lusterless, with scarcely visible growth striae. The shell is opaque-white, radiately striped with olive-bordered red lines, generally interrupted and forming a tessellated white and dark pattern. The apex is minute, recumbent, spiral, dextral. The inside of the shell is brilliantly iridescent, not showing the color pattern clearly except at the red-and-white spotted margins.[4] DistributionThis species occurs in the Pacific Ocean and in the Indian Ocean off Réunion.
