Inodrillia acloneta is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Horaiclavidae.
It was previously included within the family Drilliidae and then in Turridae.[1]
The length of the shell attains 12 mm.
(Original description) This species, recognizable by its large blunt tip and brownish livid streaks or tint, is notably variable. The variety which I have called acloneta is totally without ribs, and for this reason the fasciole is less apparent.[2]
