Cingulina spina is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Pyramidellidae, the pyrams and their allies.[2]
The white shell has a length of approximately 9 mm. The numerous whorls of the teleoconch are flattened, with scarcely a distinct suture. They are encircled by three spiral ribs, four on the body whorl, the lower part of which is smooth.[3]
