Shell surface with radial ridges. Columella with 3 teeth. Colouration: pale with variable dark blotches, at times uniformly bluish black with pale interior (Ref. 128042).
Collected where common, for food and shellcraft, in many localities of the whole Indo-West Pacific (Ref. 349). In protected areas (Refs. 349, 128042). Common in intertidal rocks (Refs. 2925, 128042), often in crevices (Ref. 128042). Found in sandy shores, near the vicinity of the depression formed during low tides to avoid desiccation. Squirts water at its attacker when disturbed (Ref. 125338). Also found in mangrove areas (Ref. 129120).
Life cycle and mating behavior

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.
