Citharomangelia galigensis is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Mangeliidae. [1]
The length of the shell attains 14 mm, its diameter 4 mm.
The shell is similar to Citharomangelia africana (G. B. Sowerby III, 1903) but the penultimate whorl only contains 7 axial ribs. The spiral sculpture is even more ill-defined.
This marine species occurs in the Persian Gulf off Galig Island.
