Pseudodaphnella aureotincta is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Raphitomidae.[1]

This is a minor form of Pseudodaphnella tincta (Reeve, 1846). The longitudinal ribs are swollen, with white ribs alternating with golden yellow ribs. The elongate-fusiform shell shows a broader, golden-yellow band in the depression near the siphonal canal.[2]
