Clathromangelia fuscoligata is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Raphitomidae.[1]
The shell is strongly sculptured, longitudinally and spirally. The color of the shell is brownish white, brown-banded at the suture, and in the middle of the body whorl. The nodulous intersections of the sculpture are frequently brown-tipped.[2]
