Graciliclava is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Horaiclavidae.[2]
It was previously included within the subfamily Crassispirinae, family Turridae.[2] Killburn in 1994 was of the opinion that Graciliclava was closely related to and possibly a subgenus of Anacithara [3][4]
