The base and the margins are whitish with some brown spots, while the columellar teeth are dark brown. ''Erronea pyriformis'' is quite similar to ''Contradusta pulchella'', but the last has longer reddish-brown teeth. In the living cowries mantle and foot are well developed, with external antennae.
