Eucithara typhonota is a small sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Mangeliidae.[1]

The holotype in the British Museum of Natural History is a juvenile form. This raises questions about the validity of this species.[2]

The length of the shell attains 8 mm, its diameter 1.5 mm.

The solid, gradate shell has an ovate shape. It is white with a smoky black spiral dorsal band, most conspicuous just behind the outer lip. It contains 8 whorls, impressed at the suture. The teleoconch shows a few rectilineal ribs, of which 12 in the body whorl. The aperture is narrow and oblong. The outer lip is simple (juvenile). The white columella is rather straight [3]

Distribution

This marine species occurs in the Persian Gulf.
