It is characterized by a low primary and radial sculpture, variable shape, massive umbonal area and smooth white shell.
Locally exploited for meat and shell. This species was previously quite abundant, but has been over collected in many areas. Aquaculture attempts being made (Ref. 348).

Common in shallow waters wherein juveniles are byssally attached to the tops and sides of coral outcrops.
