This uncommon chiton is a uniform light brown in colour. It has thin longitudinal grooves on both the pleural and lateral areas, although they are thickened or warped in places. It has a girdle of tiny scales, with a fringe of hair-like spicules. This species can be distinguished from other similar species by its uniformly thin sculpturing.
