Description
The shell of Raphitoma eberti reaches a length of approximately 7 mm. Like other members of its genus, it is characterized by a slender, elongated profile with pronounced spiral sculpture and axial ribs, creating a finely reticulate surface.The aperture is narrow, and the siphonal canal is moderately extended. These features are typical of Raphitomidae, a family known for predatory behavior and well-defined shell ornamentation.
